~$50 a barrel of oil seems to be really hurting our downstream arm of business at my engineering firm. I'm curious if this is all over or if it's just my firms ineptitude to win jobs.

You'd think all those regulations suddenly not burdening our glorious energy providers would be enough to keep them from layoffs. Isn't that how the GOP see things?

Cheap oil is making fracking too expensive to pursue and a lot of middle America that made it big off the fracking boom is now getting hosed sideways. I lived in Oklahoma last year and the number of oil and gas workers who were laid off, even from the engineering offices, was pretty grim.
