It Begins

One of the ratings agencies finally woke up.

Fitch gives long term U.S. debt a well deserved (and overdue) downgrade.  Moody's and Standard and Poors might grow a pair and follow Fitch's lead.  The last time a ratings agency (S&P in 2011) dinged the US credit rating, the Magical African Obama threw a temper tantrum and they quickly restored the AAA rating.






Just a tiny little trim off of Uncle Sam's credit score.  Who would have thought that taking on trillions more in debt would have some consequences?
