McCain Has No Solution to the Energy Crisis

A few weeks ago, I wrote about Barack Obama's long term solution to the energy crisis by investing in mass transit and alternative modes of transportation.

While Obama's plan is forward thinking, John McCain's plan goes backwards when it comes to investing in mass transit.

Then there's John McCain. Well, Sen. McCain doesn't have too much to say when it comes to national transit objectives (we suppose it's a case of 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all'). But if there's one thing that we do know, it's that McCain hates Amtrak - at least in its current state. The Arizona Senator has been attempting for years to dissolve Amtrak and create small, privately owned rail companies. In fact, McCain has sworn that if elected, the shuttering of Amtrak would be a "a non-negotiable issue."
