#3 Not service related. Go stand over there -> till we clear the line of service related cases the VA has to deal with.

#4 Yet my wife gets bills from the VA for every damn little thing they require her to do just to be able to keep getting care.

#5 100 grand to cut off a dick seems excessive.

#8 They are making the military into a sex change program. If you are a gay tranny and cant afford the surgery, you join the military for four years - that's a reality. Another reality is that the tranny's typically get desk jobs, they arent assigned infantry.

And now they are making it retro-active and available to past veterans.

#9 Hospitals make money on elective surgeries. Covid killed that. Post Covid a monstrous new industry was born with ready made lobbyists and an ideological agenda to support it.

#10 I talked to an Army recruiter (not to join, I'm retired from the Navy) about having trans people in the military. He said that the only long term medication you can be taking and still join the Army is birth control.
So people who are trans can't join, because they have to take hormone treatments all the time. We didn't discuss what happens if you go trans after enlisting. Or after serving. I didn't think you got lifetime care unless the injury was service connected, or you were retired

#12 Good point Jefe, and two years of screen-to-screen advertising to a captive consumer.

#13 100 grand to cut off a dick seems excessive.

I'd pay for it. For these fine folks. Nice example of 'be careful what you wish for'. Free dickectomies for anyone who wants one.

So too the fucking cutters.
Making maintenance clients for life.
However short that might be.

#15 'essential and lifesaving medical care' for a suicide-prone group that suffers from high rates of depression and psychological distress

And most of the suicides in that group are the post trans people that feel like their body has been mutilated and they don't feel better.

#16 I imderstood that suicide rates are basically unchanged pre- and post-surgery.
