So, you don't trust your government to do the right thing, and also fully expect banks to screw you. When you talk about living without a credit card, do you mean cash at physical shops ? Feels like you're advocating for a very peculiar way of life.

> Feels like you're advocating for a very peculiar way of life. That's all based on perspective, but yeah I would expect plenty of people to find my life peculiar. For me it isn't about trusting my government, though the US government was originally based on distrust. The government has to earn and retain my trust, it isn't a given or free. There are alternatives to credit cards, including debit cards. Cash is also still viable in the US, though I know its becoming much less common in other parts of the world. I personal don't think spending cash in physical shops I'd peculiar, but maybe I'm just that out of touch?
