Before 1820, the only people allowed to vote (or hold office) had to be landowners and tax payers.
In short, most Americans were not participants (nor taxpayers).
After 1820, the prerequisites were dropped and any warm body could vote.
And get taxed.

A 57-year-old convicted killer serving a life sentence in California became the first U.S. inmate to receive state-funded sex-reassignment surgery, the prisoner's attorneys confirmed Friday to The Associated Press.

California prison officials agreed in August 2015 to pay for the surgery for Shiloh Heavenly Quine, who was convicted of first-degree murder, kidnapping and robbery for ransom and has no possibility of parole.

How about this -- earn the money by pounding rocks or other prison jobs and pay for it himself.

Otherwise...

Maybe they'll let the prison doc do the surgery and he'll end up with his penis for a nose

Remember this stuff when some progressive loon tells you paying taxes is patriotic.
Want a sex change? Join the military.

Want to change back after you're discharged? Get sent to prison and change back!

Until I read the article, i had NO doubt this was from some kind of Wacky World News ("I was impregnated by an alien") newspaper.

Whoever approved this needs to be fired, and if I lived in California, I would probably join some kind of anti-liberal protest (and I'm a moderate, btw).

This is ridiculous and disgusting that we have starving children and we're spending money on criminals so they can feel better about their gender.

Take a deep breath...The California prison system and the state attorney general fought this for years. A federal judge ordered them to provide the surgery
