another one bites the dust...now the corporate office of Aon is relocating to London. there will still be an Aon presence downtown, but their taxes will be paid to someone other than Chicago, Illinois and the US.

in this economy, every company that is headquartered in Illinois that is not looking into moving out of Illinois should have to explain to their board of directors why not. the parade out of Illinois continues. Look at all the once significant companies that have either left or gone out of business: Hewitt, Sears, Kemper, IBM...the list goes on.
Oh, and the guy appointed by obama on the jobs creation panel has offshored more jobs than almost any other company.

you can't make this stuff up.
ok...so this is the 17th day in a row I have worked. hopefully the end is in sight, and I can return to the hard-hitting brand of journalism that is expected of me.
Illinois, what a shithole.
see - there's a start.
