Thank you for voting!
AAA. Ignore the politics; when push comes to shove, the U.S. pays. 42.08%
AA+. OK, there's a small default risk. But there's a reason the 10-year is under 2.50%. 23.38%
A-. No way will Congress rein in entitlements. I'll take my chances with Spain. 18.48%
BBB. Ireland, Iceland, U.S. — three peas in a pod. 5.01%
B. Pakistan, Nigeria, U.S. — 'Greetings. I have a secret account with $14 trillion and need your assistance ...' 3.07%
CC. We can always sell and lease back the Washington Monument. Or maybe just sell. 7.98%
If anyone can make a case as to how we remain above a BBB, I'm all ears !!!
