That superiority complex you see arises from Chicagoans being proud of what they've accomlished throughout history. If you want to call it an "superiority complex", then should I call your statement "jealousy"?


Illinois has 32 fortune 500 companies


Ohio has 27.
Michigan has 19
Minnesota has 19
Then add in the rest of the Midwest...
