No RFID cards here


Think Passport and/or TWIC cards.


We are WAY behind Europe in regards to personal finance like debit
cards, etc.

In what respect? What is the advantage to debit cards?

None, that's why you don't see them in most European countries anymore.
They use pre-loaded cards.

In Europe they use pre-loaded smart cards.

We have debit cards because we don't need or want credit. Credit cards
are one of the reasons the American economy is in the shape it is in,
now.

I will note, that a LOT of the unmanageable credit run up on credit
cards is due to the uncontrolled expense of health care.

http://bucks.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/...dit-card-debt/


The federal government should be run on debit cards.
If you can't live within a realistic budget, you shouldn't be allowed
credit in the first place.

When is the last time the U.S. even had a budget? What a horrible
example to set before the American people.

In Europe they use pre-loaded smart cards.


They use preloaded cards because their electronic banking system is
not that great across the borders. people are likely to cross.



I just don't understand how the elites don't understand the differences
in simple logistics here and over there... Comparing us to Europe just
doesn't work, it's apples to oranges.
