If my Credit Card is compromised, I can get another one. I check mine daily. My Debit Card stays parked.

Yes, simple solution. Mine as well.

Most fraud could be stopped by asking for a photo ID and matching picture and signature. Racist I guess. Besides, if credit card companies asked for it, then hard to deny it at the polling place.

A wise strategy.

Absolutely. Given the existence of credit cards, I see no reason to have a debit card. In fact, when they were first introduced, I called up my bank and complained. I had an ATM-only replacement by return mail. Why would I need a stinkin' debit card, with direct access to my bank account, when I have AX, DS, MC, VI?

However, according to Apple, Apple Pay works for both debit and credit. So, no problemo! One of these days, I might buy one.
