Forget Japan; send Beshear to California

Enticing businesses to move from California to Kentucky may not be such a hard sell if a massive $9.7 billion tax increase goes through in Sacramento.

Saving a few dollars on Gov. Beshear's junkets overseas would be nice. Putting Kentucky in position to benefit from the disastrous tax policies of another state would really be great.

Of course, we need to look out for our own disastrous policies, not the least of which is the public employee benefits mess we still need to clean up.
