Here's my three:
1) Have you at all studied the issues and the timeframes for Peak Oil? What conclusions have you come to about the timeframes and potential impact for Peak Oil? And if you become President, what sort of short-term and long-term contingency plans would you try to set in motion in preparation for when Peak Oil hits?
2) Are you at all concerned about the current state of America's electrtical grid? Do you feel it should be overhauled? And if you do want an overhaul, would you prefer it to be handled via private venture or via federal/public works projects?
3) What level of importance do you assign to America's rail systems, especially passenger rail, and especially when compared to the rail systems of other industrialized nations? Do you feel America's current rail system is adequately endowed to meet America's rail needs for the next 20 years, or should it be expanded? If the rails are expanded, should they be handled via private venture or via federal/public works projects?
