The Chinese Communist Party is rolling out its so-called “Social Credit System.” As Bill Gertz reports in the Washington Times, “China is developing a new high-tech system of mass surveillance and coercion aimed suppressing political dissent among its 1.4 billion people, while forcing American and Western businesses to conform to the government’s communist policies if they want to operate there.”

Ominously, this super-Orwellian means of oppression is not intended just for those living and doing business in China. It is being made available for export to the PRC’s fellow totalitarians elsewhere.

Hikvision is one of the Chinese Communists’ suppliers of the technology that enables the Social Credit System.  It is, consequently, illegal for Americans to do business with that company. Yet, incredibly, Wall Street is causing millions of us – including shortly government employees – to invest in it. That must stop.
