America’s credit score is no longer Aaa — it’s now Aa1, according to Moody’s. That was the final triple-A rating the U.S. held among the big three agencies ⬇️
The reason? Exploding debt and soaring interest payments, with no credible plan to fix either.
Moody’s cited the U.S. government's persistent failure to control its growing debt and rising interest payments. The agency warned that federal deficits are expected to rise to nearly 9% of GDP by 2035 📊
This isn’t just symbolic. Lower ratings mean higher borrowing costs for the government — and eventually for everyone else too 💸
