McCain Wants To Gamble With North Carolina's Coast

These stunts that people like McCrory and McCain like to pull to show they care about the oil crisis is nothing but smoke and mirrors. Trying to pull oil out of the coastline is a ridiculous and costly (not to mention unseemly) move that will most likely do more harm than good...and that "good" wouldn't materialize for years and years, doing nothing for the gas crisis that America is suffering now.



The only true way to lighten the burden on people's pocketbooks is to work to make our economy dependent on green energy like wind and solar power, not oil, not natural gas, not coal and certainly not nuclear. Our planet can give us more than enough renewable energy without having to risk our lives and our atmosphere to make a few people extremely wealthy.
