Atlanta is also one of the most polluted and congested cities in the country. We will see if they are serious or not. I just hope that Malloy and his crew are working their a**es off to keep them here. Jay

Malloy and his bu** bandits better come up with something. They're the reason why we got into this mess. There are no excuses. Take responsibility of your actions. 5 year olds could come up with a better excuse than the ones your giving.

They are looking at Buckhead which is growing like crazy. I was watching HH the other day and they had 4 episodes back to back about Buckhead. COL it's not that much different day to day than CT, but I'm sure business taxes are better.

The article has a lot of maybes an mays so who know what they are planning.

And yet Georgia has a higher unemployment rate than Connecticut. Go figure! Jay

I worked in Atlanta for a period of time and it is definitely congested but not much worse than some of our highways here. The advantage CT has is Metro-North which is a much more viable commuting option than MARTA in Atlanta.

Atlanta is a very dynamic city with a lot to recommend it to businesses and I could see GE choosing to relocate there if Malloy and the legislature don't act.
