Which Is Better: Debit Cards or Credit Cards?

Credit and debit cards both have advantages and financial experts often disagree about which is best. We're interested in hearing your opinion. And make it count, because we'll be posting a follow-up article next week with the best arguments on both sides. What We're Looking For Yep, it's another Flame War. People enjoyed our look at Chrome vs. Firefox, Facebook vs. Google, and the Great Toilet Paper War of 2013, we just had to do it again. Our hope is that when we sift through the your comments, a reasonable look at the advantages and disadvantages of both types of card will emerge. So slip into your flame-retardant gear, jump into the discussions below, and most of all, have fun! Just keep in mind that we're using the term "flame war" a little tongue-in-cheek: we'll actually be looking for the polite, well-reasoned, and well-articulated arguments to feature in our follow-up.
