debt amounts and other stuff

The downrating was because a large chunk of the legislature was insisting that the nation had a moral imperative, overriding all other priorities, to refuse to pay the debts that we owed. I’d be leery about lending money to someone who insisted something that irrational, too. The rating agencies don’t care how much money we borrow; they just care that we’ll pay it back.

You wouldn’t be leery about lending money to someone that must borrow money from others in order to pay you? You and S and P have a different opinion on what the downgrade was about. You know that right?
