On page 65, according to Eric Schlosser,” The city is now torn between opposing visions of what America should be.” I find this quote to be very intriguing. Colorado Springs was more of a religious city which had strong morals and restriction. Within the city, Colorado Springs contained twenty eight Charismatic Christian churches. Many of the businesses in Colorado Springs were tied with religion in some way. Everything changed when Californians started to come over and “californianized” Colorado Springs. I find that really interesting considering that that was the same exact thing the Europeans did when they came to America. Californians came over and brought many things that went against Colorado Springs main religion and Republicans view.
