Its not terribly inaccurate but in GURPS the contemporary US is represented by a general CR of 3 as the US has a lot of freedom but a lot of incarceration as well.

Variations are products of Social Stigma and Social Status respectively not a separate C.

Some of these social stigmas very, a felony record is 10 points most places but only 5 in some states as its not available to employers and you can still vote.

Status of course operates as usual.

Gun and weapon laws are all over the map CR2 and Cr3 are most common with a few CR4 pockets
