Oh Susana, you little twit. The ratings agencies are afraid to fairly rate our credit. And, while there may be some funds who have bet against the state (based on practical, pragmatic credit analysis), the damage is to the people who have placed their trust in the corrupt POS politicians who continue to abuse their power and violate their oath of office and assumed fiduciary obligations. They, and you, Mendoza, are despicable.
