Companies want to be located in a State named after Indians?
Those blue states are running off businesses at a brisk pace aren’t they?
Hecho en Mexico.
Getting the hell out of of a state controlled by Chicago.

Nothing’s changed since the 50s/60s when my family lived in Arlington Heights. Crooked Cook County still runs the state.
[Snack and candy businesses that make money on small margins often cant afford to play politics.]
They’re also victims of the U.S. sugar subsidy racket—crony capitalism which both parties seem to support.

When that old compromiser Everett McKinley Dirksen died in 1969, the future of IL was about shot already. Bernard Epton urged that action be taken “before it is too late”. Too late now, for sure
Texas beckons.
Embrace the suck, UnionTards. The 60's called and what their relevance back.
Great title :)
All your Ho-Ho’s are belong to us.
And they didn’t bring back the Drake’s brand.
I always thought that their oatmeal cookies and coffee cakes were THE BEST.
Absolutely better than any other ones I’ve ever add, and yes Entenmann’s and my dear departed mother in law, this includes you for the coffee cake.
And the oatmeal cookies were just great, not so hard like they often are but not so soft as to be mushy.
We got Mrs. Field’s (I think) cookies at work from a client, they were so soft they tasted like they weren’t cooked. They’d probably be good if you could put then in the over for a few minutes.
You know, this just drives home how stupid politicians can be when it comes to economics. Years ago, when a lot of corporations were leaving unionized states in the north for non-union states in the south, Gov. Celeste signed an exit tax for the state of Ohio. As I recall, any company that was closing an existing plant in OH had to pay an exit tax equal to six month’s payroll. The idea being that those funds would be used to pay unemployment comp and retraining costs. What is amazing is that the politicians were surprised when new company formations in OH went to almost zero after they passed the exit tax. When are they going to learn that tax policy extends beyond simple tax collections. Idiots...
waiting to see how the libtards in wisconsin blame scott walker for this. /semi sarc
This is what change looks like.
Liberal politicians play checkers but real life is chess.
I always preferred Drake’s in my adolescent years.
