Beshear wants to "fix" Kentucky energy

Get ready for taxes and energy prices to go up if Gov. Steve Beshear's new proposed "Make Kentucky the Energy Capital of the World" plan becomes a reality.

Beshear wants Kentuckians to use less energy and use more alternative sources of energy and to produce two billion gallons of motor fuels a year from coal.

Beshear said today he plans to release a comprehensive energy plan in September.

Didn't Fletcher already have this plan all figured out and planned?

The private sector has really smart people that have advanced technology in this country quickly without imposing taxes on the people. If Beshear's plan is wonderful then the private sector should jump on it without state incentives and without state involvement - except to put the bureaucratic paperwork on a fast track.
