It’s profoundly wrong that we have government policies that support so-called “transing” children, and that needs to stop now.
We must end this madness. The fact that Americans are now expected to accept taxpayer-funded “transing” of people—especially vulnerable children—as legitimate public policy is beyond absurd. How did we ever arrive at a point where the government not only tolerates but also financially supports puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and irreversible surgeries?
Regardless of where Americans stand on broader cultural debates, taxpayers should never be forced to bankroll permanent medical interventions that carry enormous physical, emotional, and financial consequences. It is irrational, irresponsible, and deeply dangerous.
Let’s be honest about what makes this so insane. We do not use public dollars to help people smoke more cigarettes. We do not subsidize alcoholism. We do not encourage children to make permanent body modifications before they are mature enough to understand the lifelong consequences.
Society recognizes that minors are vulnerable, impressionable, and often incapable of grasping the full weight of irreversible decisions. Yet somehow, when it comes to “gender medicine,” common sense is discarded, caution is vilified, and taxpayers are told they must finance these interventions or be labeled hateful.
That is backward.
Puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gender-transition surgeries are not harmless social experiments. They are profound medical interventions with life-altering consequences. Children subjected to these pathways may face sterilization, impaired bone density, sexual dysfunction, psychological distress, and permanent physical changes they may later regret.
These are not small matters. These are not temporary decisions. These are life-defining consequences, often imposed on young people during periods of confusion, vulnerability, and emotional instability.
And yet the political establishment increasingly treats skepticism of this system as some kind of moral failing.
Real compassion does not mean blindly affirming every adolescent uncertainty with chemicals and scalpels. Real compassion means protecting vulnerable children from irreversible harm while they are still developing physically, mentally, and emotionally. Real compassion means asking difficult questions before government institutions, school systems, or activist bureaucracies pressure families toward drastic interventions. Real compassion means recognizing that childhood confusion should not become a taxpayer-funded medical industry.
