An indication of what is happening to areas where cities are border cities. So easy to move from the Quad Cities to Wolcott Iowa. This is an ongoing problem and will continue until and when Illinois once again becomes competitive with the border states with regard to taxing business.
Sure it will affect a small number of people in Illinois but we are being hurt not only in the Quad Cities on the Mississippi but even as far inland as the Illinois Valley when business does this.
Hey Jim, I always remember why you moved to Iowa, lower taxes. Didn't understand at the time but do now.
