hmmm... state ratings...
if the US was downgraded by S&P because of the political debt ceiling fiasco and not because the US cant repay its debt....
i wonder why MN hasn't been downgraded by S&P. Fitch and moody's already have them downgraded. but not S&P. MN is the only state who's political budget fiasco shutdown the govt, for 3 weeks. the longest state shutdown in modern history.
i see many parallels between MN's budget issue and the US's debt issue. Except S&P's response.
Minnesota continues to maintain a AAA rating with Standard & Poor’s
