Economy-wise people are going to start moving away and finding other jobs. And it’s not going to be good for the parish and the local businesses.
TROY YOUNG
Thibodaux
Yeah. I think people are going to start robbing people. If there are a lot of lay-offs, people can’t find work.
JESSICA BEANE

I feel like the companies are going to do what they can to make sure that everybody sustains life like normal.

Look around us. It’s affecting everyone. I have heard a lot of people [have been let go]. I haven’t seen any of them go back.
KRISTY LEDFORD

I think that it’s going to cause a lot of problems for families who are trying to make it, especially families that have to have two incomes.

A good friend of mine got laid off Thursday and he’s been there for years. I know the oil prices is affecting them.
