"We would do thousands of jobs a year in the city, but as we got robbed more, my people operating rollers and pavers we got robbed, our equipment would get stolen in broad daylight and there would usually be a gun involved, and it got expensive and it got dangerous," said Gary Rabine, who pulled his road paving company out of the city after his crews were repeatedly robbed.

Rabine told Fox News that the increased costs of security and insurance for "thousands" of jobs in the city eventually caused expenses to be "twice as much as they should be" per employee.

Billionaire Ken Griffin moved his firm, Citadel, from Chicago to Miami, after saying in October 2021 that "Chicago is like Afghanistan, on a good day, and that's a problem," adding that he saw "25 bullet shots in the glass window of the retail space" in the building he lives in.

"If people aren't safe here, they're not going to live here," he told the Wall Street Journal in April. "I've had multiple colleagues mugged at gunpoint. I've had a colleague stabbed on the way to work. Countless issues of burglary. I mean, that's a really difficult backdrop with which to draw talent to your city from."
