I have no problem with people using their own money to get the surgery. I have no problem with transgendered people. But if it isn't life threatening, tax dollars probably shouldn't cover it. That seems completely fair

By that logic

Giving people wheelchairs isn't necessary because it isn't life or death for most people who need one, it's only the difference between them being able to exist in public and get around versus being trapped at home, mostly in bed, for the rest of their lives and as they wouldn't be able to move or get fresh air or exercise that wouldn't be nearly as long a life as it could be.

Which is to say, that it perfectly illustrates why quality of life enhancing medical care should be covered. Hell, there's some third world countries with universal healthcare, the US only has one excuse for why they haven't done so and that's capitalism.


People needing to get around IS a life or death situation though. If you can't get to the grocery store, you can't eat, you die. That's not the same thing
