As a resident of the People's Socialist RepuliK of Illinois, I thought Illinois (as a state) was already "junk bond status" so why would anyone be surprised Chicago's getting downgraded again?

What I don't understand is how can the entire state be junk bond status and Chicago (gee, a part of Illinois) be A-??

State government and city government are separate entities with separate credit.
