Quote:“The implication is that even in the most extreme scenario that we were able to identify … we expect only a 0.13-percent ($8.4 million out of $6.2 billion) increase in health care spending,” Rand's authors concluded.
By contrast, total military spending on erectile dysfunction medicines amounts to $84 million annually, according to an analysis by the Military Times — 10 times the cost of annual transition-related medical care for active duty transgender servicemembers.
The military spends $41.6 million annually on Viagra alone, according to the Military Times analysis — roughly five times the estimated spending on transition-related medical care for transgender troops.
The military seems to spend a lot on frivolous bullshit. Like that time they were buying freaking gun scopes with prayers on them.
But hey not like our military can boast after all were the country that
Bought submarines that sink or catch fire
Have helicopters that fall out of the sky
Allowed ourselves to go from a military power to nothing
And sent our troops to afghanistan in jungle camouflage
It's our armies problem. Some of the best troops sailors and pilots in the world . No equipment to give them.
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
