Looks like Illinois needs a few more hundreds and thousands of illegals to set them straight.

[Bonemaker]

Illinois can’t suck too much. Shame because lots of decent, talented, honest, hardworking people. Chicago metro area kills it.

The company’s departure follows a series of high-profile corporate exits that have plagued Democrat voters Illinois in recent years

I enjoyed visiting the Morton Arboretum.

Who doesn’t trust their salt?

[Lockbox]

We’re not in Kansas anymore Toto…… no, we’re not in Illinois anymore!

[hal ogen]

I’m surprised that EVERY business hasn’t left that loser DIM-run state.

[quantim]

After the DNC riots coming up one can expect even a greater exodus of businesses and residents that can afford it.

[Right Brother]

A little too much pepper Chicago?

[neverevergiveup]

Yes, I love the arboretum. It’s very sad that a company so embedded in the community such that they donated this wonderful arboretum has decided Illinois is no longer home.

Sadly, for too many of us our own nation is ceasing to feel like our home.

It has been a presence in Chicago since 1848.

There’s always Israel.

That’s my Plan B.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Cause and effect.

Such a mysterious concept to the leftist mind.

[Texas resident]

From the article: “High taxes are why most Illinoisans have moved out in the past decade, dropping the population by 548,916. As Morton Salt and others depart, Illinois leaders need to carefully examine why.”

Gee Wally I wonder why?

high-profile corporate exits that have plagued Illinois in recent years

It’s impossible to correct all journalistic malfeasance. For this one the correct statement is ILLINOIS GOVERNMENT HAS SO PLAGUED HIGH-PROFILE CORPORATIONS IN RECENT YEARS THEY ARE FLEEING ILLINOIS. Sigh…

[RightOnTheBorder]

Leave your employees there. Don’t move parasites from Chicago to ruin somewhere decent.

[monkeyshine]

I thought they were from Louisiana. Maybe I confused them with the Tabasco one people.

I’ve never met a down-stater in Illinois who doesn’t despise the state government.
