Subjekt: rating systems and the BKR

Is any rating system really worth that much? I have been playing tournament chess in the US for a number of years now and I've gotten to the point where I beat 1800s pretty regularly and I'm still only a class B. The USCF system is known for its ability to inflate sporadically (at both ends) and this site is under the same problems. The system is also padded at the bottom so that the difference between the 1300-1700 range is relatively small. I don't put much faith in any rating system so whatever Fencer desides to do to alter the BK system it doesn't really matter.
