US-POLITICS-ECONOMY-PUBLIC-DEBT-RATINGS
(FILES): This March 29, 2009 file photo shows George Washington on the front of the one dollar (USD) note in Washington, DC. The United States' credit rating was cut for the first time ever Friday, August 5, 2011, when Standard and Poor's lowered it from triple-A to AA+, citing the country's looming deficit burden and weak policy-making process. Standard and Poor's revised the nation's rating downwards to a AA+ with a negative outlook, despite a push back from the White House which said its analysis of the US economy was deeply flawed. It was the first time the US was downgraded since it first received a triple-AAA rating from Moody's in 1917; it has held the S&P rating since 1941. AFP PHOTO / Files / Karen BLEIER
