Nothing surprising about this move. Another day, another company headed for greener pastures with better tax structures and cost of operations in a Gulf Coast state. I lived not far from Bloomington and these folks are getting quite an upgrade.

My family is all part of the SF Mafia. If they'd have done this 50 years ago, we could be 'neighbors'.

I read through the comments and I think some folks have their proverbial head in the sand and are denying the move is happening (or are downplaying its significance)

If I were Texas, I'd quit begging these folks to relocate. They'll bring all of their retard lib employees with them and keep voting on the same stuff that caused them to abandon their previous home.

Central IL is pretty conservative. Except Peoria.

Caterpillar threatened to move it's headquarters several months ago ... they were looking at Virginia and Texas.

They, Caterpillar probably got a tax break meaning the citizens of Ill. will probably have to make up the difference.

Financial services people as a whole are pretty fiscaly conservative and in favor of a more limited government. Not many industries have more regulation now...
