Sex-change surgeries cost an average $132,000 each!
Taxpayer-funded sex-change surgeries would cost the Pentagon $1.3 billion over 10 years.
President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that transgender individuals will not be eligible to serve in the military, with the White House citing cost and military readiness concerns.
Internal data provided to the Washington Free Beacon from Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R., Mo.), a leading opponent of taxpayer-funded sex changes, show that even by using a conservative estimate, the costs associated with 0.7 percent of the military population is great.
Hartzler's office provided a detailed calculation that shows estimates of the current number of transgender service members, and the number likely to seek a taxpayer-funded gender transition.
"The 10-year cost estimate is for surgery only and is adjusted for 3 percent inflation; it accounts for Active Duty, Guard, and Reserve members currently serving as well as new recruits over the same time period," the document states. "It uses the FY 18 DoD number for total number of military members and multiplies it by the percentage of military personnel assumed to be transgender as reported by the UCLA Williams Institute and the National Center for Transgender Equality."

“In the past, Hartzler has pointed out that for $1.35 billion the Pentagon could purchase 13 F-35 fighters or 14 F-18 Super Hornets.”
Yea, what’s more important:
(13) F-35s
(14) F-18s

And after the expenditure of those many billions (1.3 billion? Bullbleep!) you have people that aren't just useless to "the mission" but actually harmful to it.
No perverts in the United States Armed Forces!!

And this doesn’t count their recovery time off and a long period of counseling together used to their unnatural state. They will not be missed after Trump fires them.

"Sex-change surgeries " They are anything but. Your chromosomes determine your sex and they cannot be changed as every cell in your body has a complete set. What if you want "to change your species?" What if someone says he wants to be a giraffe? Would that be covered to? That is the logical consequence of this nonsense--normalizing insanity. I've been a mushroom for the last ten years, and I did not charge the government a penny.

This is INSANE. Aren’t people rejected from serving in the military as a standard practice for pre-existing conditions? Isn’t being a deviant a pre-existing condition?

I had forgotten about that.
Obama forces military to wear high heels!
If anyone wanted to demoralize a military, all you have to do is look at what Obama was forcing on our military. That is why he was doing it. To destroy our military.

Why would the DoD spend one cent for a procedure that would make a troop less effective?

Did financial consulting for one of the first hospitals that perform this stuff .
These people were mentally ill and did not pay any of their bills .
And what made it worse , these crazies would come back after-wards a year later and demand to be changed back.
It was a one way trip folks and the crazies are then trapped in this weird
in-between state .
Hospital got out of
this line of work real quick .

So, These preening, mincing faggots want a sex-change op? I'll save the taxpayer a pretty penny. Just queue up single-file, drop trou, and hoist your offending package onto my operating table........consider it my duty as an American to help any way I can.
For an extra ten bucks, I'll take my power jigsaw and give you a vertical smile.
