Chapter 7

In chapter 7 the author talks about Colorado being the state of industral slaugtering factories. He makes it a large fact that now a days the moderen factory town has diminshed because of fast food and the price of vacuumed wrapped meat is going up, and jobs are no longer wanted by americans due to pay cut. Each state I beleive has their own so called means of living. As in our state we had all the machine shops that made car parts, light bulbs, and plastic. As we all remember Delphi workers were making over $25.00 an hour or more and now those workers were forced to retire and take a buy out, their jobs were given to others who would settle for a lower paying job. We used to be one of the states that was better off money wise but as time went on my generation will never have good jobs like that with out education. In other words we are now called the rusty nail state.
