Comment: Look at the following comment: Pressed on what he would cut, Hurt said "regulators," and gave as an example EPA regulators. His father, by the way, is invested in uranium mining! Hurt's true colors are showing, he wants uranium mining without protecting us in VA! No to Hurt, No to uranium mining!

The only debate thus far between the Republican and Democratic candidates for Congress from Virginia's Fifth District
Hurt said he would look at Medicare and Medicaid as places for cuts and would focus on reducing the cost of healthcare by using "market-based" solutions and by allowing insurance companies to sell across state lines, neither of which policies anyone seriously believes can reduce healthcare costs.
Hurt wants the recent health insurance reform bill repealed but hasn't read it and doesn't seem to know the first thing about healthcare.
Hurt claims he would protect Social Security, but with policies that will increase, not decrease, healthcare costs, and with a refusal to slash Social Security, and with a refusal to cut the military, and with no doubt a willingness to keep increasing the military just as Perriello has done, and with a refusal to raise any taxes on anyone or anything, why does Hurt even bother to talk about balancing the budget?

I'm not sure cancer reduces healthcare costs.
