State school superintendent June Atkinson has won her court battle to control day-to-day operations of the N.C. Department of Public Instruction. Will her victory make any difference for public education in North Carolina? Terry Stoops tackles that question in the next edition of Carolina Journal Radio.

Health care has dominated national news coverage in recent weeks. You?ll hear Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory?s concerns about the Obama administration?s health ideas, and you?ll learn about an ancient philosophical debate that underlies much of today?s discussion of health care priorities. Dr. C.L. Gray will explain how Plato and Hippocrates set the table for today?s debates.

Plus we?ll talk taxes. Joe Henchman of the Tax Foundation will discuss North Carolina?s missed opportunity for tax reform, while Joe Coletti will outline reasons why North Carolina does not need to expand an existing state tax credit for film production.
