I have experience with rating agencies and I told my family and significant other to expect a series of downgrades perpetuating who-knows-what.

They get on this downgrade cycle and it can’t be stopped. What people don’t realize is that this sort of downgrade constitutes a downgrade to all financial institutions and corporations holding U.S. Treasury debt.

Everybody had better take a deep seat and hope that our leaders don’t decide to disrupt communications, energy, food supplies and travel.

Uncharted waters here.

Very interesting post—I’m very concerned, especially in light of China’s threat, although I’m late to this thread.
