Ali, let’s start with u, the downgrade would be kinda like seeing ur personal credit score just take a huge hit, right?
Right, we already have a debt problem. We already pay too much interest on too much debt. Downgrade would mean the cost of borrowing which the US has to do very regularly to increase borrowing would cost us more. So it would actually set us back. So most thinking people think we need to avoid this debt not to be increased. Here are 3 consequences. First of all, if the debt limit is not increased. The debt costs go up. No2 it could freeze international borrowing and lending coz US is the safest bet in the world to lend money to. If the safest bet ,all of sudden becomes less safe, it turns the whole system upside down. No.3 it just crated 11 lack of uncertainty 12 and here in the stock market so a lot of people have investment in borrowing and ? started to suffer and there becomes the lack of quality, u heard them said before.
