The Winston-Salem Journal’s all over the place in this editorial on child health care. For starters:
The solutions to those problems don’t rest in Washington or Raleigh. They reside at the dinner table of every North Carolina home. It is time for mom and dad to prepare more healthful meals, to make fewer visits to fast-food restaurants, to reduce sweets and other fattening foods in the family diets and to get everyone outside for more activity.
The Journal also says “doctors need to get control of medical care,” but then they conclude “only when there is comprehensive national health-care reform will the problem with North Carolina’s uninsured children be addressed.”
Do they really believe doctors will get control of medical care when the government gets involved?
