    The new health care legislation will require all Americans to buy medical insurance insurance. It will also require all medical insurance companies to cover a long government mandated list of treatments. And among these treatments may well be elective gender reassignment surgery. Sex change operations are already funded by the governments in many European countries. It is also funded by taxpayers in some Canadian provinces:

    When someone demands their insurance company pay for their sex change operation, it will raise the premiums for everyone else. Remember, no one is going to have a choice, everyone will have to buy insurance that covers sex change operations, should they so choose. The total costs of gender reassignment in the United States can often exceed 100,000 dollars over the course of the "transition", which can take several years.

    If you think this sort of thing can't happen in America, think again:

    the NHS will pay for that here, but you have to live as the 'other' for a minimum period of two years first. They will also pay for a nose job if it is for non-cosmetic reasons or even for cosmetic reasons if it is deemed to have a negative effect on a person's mental health if they have a massive nose or something.

    When we talk about insurance company to pay for this sex change operation then it is clear that you haven't opted this facility therefore they are not providing money in this context.We can't force any organization to include this facility in it.

    Sex change is not a basic healthcare necessity so it should not be taxpayer funded.

    What next, taxpayer funded boob implants?

    ObamaCare (and our current healthcare system as a whole) are a crock because they're essentially the govt using the private sector as its own healthcare plan. The govt should create its own separate single payer system and leave the private sector alone.

    Socialism is a different god(*)(*)(*)(*) mode of production, not some magical sprinkles that you can put on top of a capitalist industry run for profit and call it "Socialized".

    Americans use the legitimate economic term 'socialized' completely incorrectly.

    I don't think most conservatives realize just what type of values Liberals actually have. The Liberal leadership doesn't want to push the envelope too much at this stage, they know America is not ready for it. But there are plenty of Liberals who would love to see taxpayer funded sex change operations, even for little children. Once the moral state of America declines a bit more, conservatives will start to see Liberals reveal their true hand of cards.

    Do Americans realize what is just around the corner?

    In Germany, they have already done a sex change operation on a 16 year old boy, paid for by the German taxpayers of course!
    Actually, the hormone treatments began even before then, so the sex change transformation was really begun when he was only 13 years old.
    Of course, the progressive state-run media paraded the child around as an wonderful example to all the other little children:

    Will Americans be forced to pay for sex-change operations?


    We already do. As I've mentioned enough times on this forum Americans pays for Israel's health care which includes sexual reassignment.
