Could be :P And another thing, why would someone quote this text ...

Looks like another illuminati/conspiracy theorie kinda shizzle.

S&P removes Dutch from triple-A club

as I anticipate it months ago here.

Everyone knew that, and everyone with any knowledge of rating bureaus knows that it is completely irrelevant. Those rating bureaus have no economic authority to play any fundamental role in the creditworthiness of countries. They are not good at evaluating credit risk of companies, let alone countries. Ignore them.

mmh..
interesting.

anyway.
something is moving, S&P or not.

an annotation,
i find quite funny what you think about the private regulation of markets (and the private companies that work for its credibility).

Maybe you'll prefer a public society doing that?
;P
NB:don't answer I'm kiddin!

S&P - just like Moody's and Fitch - just offer information that is worthless. Their service has - for me - no value whatsoever. Companies are just paying them to get a good stamp (because that stamp is necessary because of - guess what - government regulations). Those rating bureaus have nothing to do with regulation of markets.

Oh, interesting to know that private companies paying private companies for a self regolation of financial markets is due only because off.... gov regulations!
What an accentrator thief this world gov.. no?

BTW:
I don't care about them, I care about what they say
They say something really annoying: austherity kills.
and it's killing, whatever kind of public (or private) sector you have. Whatever debt rate (private or public), whatever labour regulation you have.

Stats are online, if you don't believe S&P... believe numbers.

I've got news for you: they don't say that.

This shows how much you care about reality. Every possible thing you could use - regardless of the quality of the source - to break down austerity is being used by you.

The government cannot solve the crisis it created. It cannot solve any economic crisis.

Stats are online, if you don't believe S&P... believe numbers.

What are numbers worth if they aren't put in a context? Nothing.

Yep, no more triple-A and that's a pity because it costs money. Ofcourse this was about to happen with all the cuts and a lame government without the majority of the seats which makes it even harder to move forward.

It won't. People knew this was going to happen, and as you know, anticipated changes are included in the price mechanism, so no, your interest rate won't go up because of this.

Without a majority of the seats in a non-directly elected (and quite frankly, minor) Chamber of the Dutch Parliament. In the more important Chamber of the Dutch Parliament, they have a sufficient majority.
