People now show off wealth via cars, clothes, etc., health via sports, hard drinking, etc., & smarts via vocabulary, degrees, etc. Such signaling might happen less if we published easy-found official tests/measures of everyone's wealth, health, & smarts. Do you support doing so?

Why so sure? Scandinavians have norms against showing off, Americans do too. Maybe the relative strengths are to blame, but maybe it's something else.

I doubt it actually is the tax return thing, though. The past few years we've had to log in so that everybody we stalk can see we're stalking them. That pretty much rules out checking everybody you know.
