Tim, this is what the S&P said: Compared with previous projections, our revised base case scenario now assumes that the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts, due to expire by the end of 2012, remain in place. We have changed our assumption on this because the majority of Republicans in Congress continue to resist any measure that would raise revenues, a position we believe Congress reinforced by passing the act. http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/08/sp-downgrades-us-aaa-bond-rating-to-aa-outlook-negative.php?ref=fpblg Its echoes what every rational person in this country and in the world has been saying for years. And yet, a minority of the people in this country, you included, refuses to pay more taxes and instead comes up with one half baked excuse after another for why we should not let the Bush tax cuts expire. In the meantime, the wealthy keep buying every luxury good available to man. And now, you people have gotten the US downgraded. Yes, you all are guilty one more time of screwing up this country. Its enough! If you don't like a rational gov't, then move to some place that better suits your economic idiosyncracies.
