Moody's downgrades US credit rating from AAA to OMFGNWIHYSB
Yes, our credit rating as a nation is no longer AAA but now OMFGNWIHYSB, standing for Oh My Fucking God No Way In Hell You Stupid Bastards.

1. A bit OT, but this reminds me of an episode of "Arrested Development"...
...in which the Bluth corporation (on Jim Cramer's "Mad Money") went from "Triple Sell" to "Don't Buy.":rofl:

3. But surely Moody's will improve the rating
When the Corporate tax rate drops from 35% to 25%.

As is being proposed in Congress today.

I would add a sarcasm tag but I have no idea why or how Moody's works?!?

Maybe they will support yet another round of "trickle down" economic theory.
