The problem is that there are a lot of things you can't do without a credit card, or at least easily. Renting a car for instance. I was looking and a lot of them don't let you reserve one without one. The ones that take a debit card have a longer list of things you need to bring - pay stubs, etc. and they'll do a credit check. Doesn't matter to them that you have $20,000 in the bank or a credit card with a $3000 limit. They prefer the credit card.
