You're assuming everyone would fall prey to carrying balances on their credit cards like you did. Many people are perfectly capable of only spending that which they can
afford to spend that month. I've been a Prime member for several years, and I've never once carried an Amazon balance on my credit card from one month to the next. Some people (even--or especially--those of lower income) know that over-extending themselves with credit card debt is a recipe for disaster. Using a credit card for online purchases does not inherently imply over-spending (Prime or no Prime).
