I do feel bad for the families of the people that are going to be laid off because of this poor planning. There aren't that many jobs in the Springs! &lt;/p&gt;

I mean, what do they think gay marriage does, other than put a legal stamp on families? Insanity. And now, of course, all those layoffs will hurt their employees' families. Great job, guys!&lt;/p&gt;
