"....In downtown Rockford, Capital Acquisitions and Management Company (CAMCO) is establishing a new headquarters and training center. CAMCO's relocation and expansion could bring as many as 500 new jobs to downtown Rockford over the next three years.

"We were looking for a city that provided us with a strong and talented workforce as well as a healthy downtown," says CAMCO Chairman George J. Othon. "The City of Rockford provides us with both of these benefits. The assistance of the State of Illinois, the City of Rockford, and the Rockford Area Council of 100 has been instrumental in making this project a reality."

CAMCO is eligible for tax credits through the EDGE program, and for worker training grants through the ITP. The City of Rockford has also offered various incentives to assist CAMCO, including $750,000 in Community Development Block Grant money for new job creation."

SHOCKING that a scam company like this gets government help to stay in biz!
