Putting the U.S. Debt Problems in Perspective
I can’t believe the gall of people who are complaining how S&P downgraded America’s credit rating from AAA to AA+. What does everyone expect?
As I read somewhere recently, America is like a family that earns $58,000/year, spends $72,000/year, and has $350,000 in credit card debt. Do you think a family in that situation has good credit? Obviously not. So why should the U.S. be any different? Because it has the ability to print more money endlessly … like that’s a solution?
I can’t blame S&P for recent statements that more downgrades are coming. For the people complaining? Maybe they should spend more time fixing the problem than blaming the independent companies who compile the rankings.
