Death to National Rail

As I wrote in a previous blog entry, Barack Obama has pledged support to fix America's crumbling infrastructure including our national rail system. John McCain, the Arizona senator and presumptive Republican nominee, has promised to kill Amtrak - saying that it would be 'a non-negotiable issue'.

The short-sightedness is rather refreshing. I guess we know who's funding McCain's campaign!

Anyway, read this, this, and this.
