[QUOTE="Marbleyes, post: 148616, member: 675"] It just amazes me how short of memories people have. I guess some of you would have rather been going through what most of the rest of the country went through with foreclosed homes and no jobs. We were one of the very few lucky states that didn't get hit hard by the recession. A huge reason for that was the boom. Maybe some of you were so sheltered here that you couldn't comprehend what was going on but when I talked to people that moved here to try and save their homes and families I got a little different perspective. Sure there is a lot of bad that comes with oil but there is a lot worse that comes from losing your home and your job and wondering when the economy would turn around so you can pick up the pieces and start over.
