Caterpillar Runs From Illinois

Thursday, February 9, 2012

Much like everything about Obama, Illinois is not business friendly...



"Please understand that even if your community had the right logistics for this project, Caterpillar's previously documented concerns about the business climate and overall fiscal health of the state of Illinois still would have made it unpractical for us to select your community for this project," the letter reads in part. "Caterpillar intends to continue calling for long-term changes in Illinois and to offer help to the state as it works toward real and fundamental reforms that will position communities like yours to compete for future projects."
North Carolina will be pleased.
