Can we please cool it with the sweeping "most/all of Europe" assertions? This, just like credit use overall, is also highly country/region specific.
This is not true. Plenty of Europeans have credit cards which work exactly like US credit cards.
The main difference between credit cards in Europe and in the US is that poor people can't get them here.
