Moody's gives Washington its first-ever triple-A credit rating

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Moody's Investors Service is bullish on Washington's economy.

The company disclosed Friday that it has upgraded Washington's credit rating to AAA, marking the state's first upgrade in 22 years and the first time the Evergreen State has secured Moody's highest rating.

A triple-A rating denotes issues to "be of the highest quality with minimal risk to bondholders." And Moody's predicts a stable outlook for the state, meaning that the AAA rating should not change for the next 12 to 24 months.

Curiously, the upbeat assessment comes at a time of downbeat talk by those who can't abide that the state's -- and Seattle's -- progressive social and workplace policies can coexist with robust economic growth.
