Quoted from jeffro01:Or perhaps IL isn't as anti-business as right wing political prognosticators seem to think? I can't imagine any business moving if they didn't do the math first...

NJ and Chicago are both not GREAT business friendly states. I am sure it is a matter of parts suppliers being local, pinball talent being local, lots of experienced pinball employees available, and his design team is already there. I would say the cost of business is about the same in both states and therefore has nothing to do with your political babble your spewing.
Quoted from Lermods:I believe jjp in Lakewood was in an economic Enterprise zone that allows for several tax breaks..could be wrong, but doesn't seem entirely related to cost.
I think you are correct. I think this is strictly to be closer to pinball suppliers and talent.
Quoted from DerGoetz:My family had a factory in Lakewood once, making roll pins. You will NOT get any talent to move there. What a shit town.....
people could commute from outlying areas
