Jobs

Illinois unemployment is now 9.5%. An employer of 250 is announcing this morning that due to anti-business environment in Illinois, they are moving to Indiana. A move of less than 50 miles will save them immediately.

No big deal? We lose 250 families. So?

The effects will be felt at area grocery stores, dry cleaners, restaurants, daycare centers, dentists, and on and on.

The governor's office has pronounced that the raises in taxes on individuals and businesses in Illinois has not connection with our unemployment. Genius.

'til later
