You don’t have to worry about Cat. We don’t have many liberals working with us.

Probably to a higher degree than the groups I work with closely, product groups, Enginnering, logistics. But less than you’d find at other companies. Overall Cat leans conservative.

The fact that you think you know the political leanings of over 100k people doesn't surprise me but it doesn't make it any less dumb either

It's to my understanding these departments are still home to Peoria.

No offense kid, but you may one of the most stupid assholes I’ve ever encountered on here. That’s unfortunate for you, having to go through life not only being stupid, but also being an a-hole.

On second though, I take back the “no offense” part. You’re a stupid a-hole so offending you doesn’t bother me in the least.

They moved HQ only 5 years ago. They must be tired of Chicago



Tired of Illinois taxes I'd guess.

I get that. It's not just cook county, in specific it was Mike Madigan and his mafia. They ran that state like Venezuela for decades, guess what happens... You didn't have enough voters to displace him and his goons.

This is why the electoral college is such a good idea. It prevents long term rule by one party. Once you have long term rule, you have less effective checks and balances, which is what it really takes to keep the gov't on their toes and out of our pockets.
