We have lived in the US for 18 months now and had to deal with more fraudulent charges on our cards and bank accounts (about $2000
) than in the previous 30 years of living in Europe (a nice round $0).
I just don’t understand everyone is ok with this broken system.

The DMV I totally get, but I’m surprised that there are still gas stations that don’t accept credit!

Transaction fees add up at average 1.8% for credit vs 0.3% for debit https://www.valuepenguin.com/credit-card-processing/interchange-fees … In a business where average net profit margins are 4.3% http://pages.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/New_Home_Page/datafile/margin.html …

You keep conflating cash only with only accepting debit. If you want to use those gas stations or pay at the DMV bring cash. Never use a debit card for a transaction not with your bank.
