In regards to this specific case I think she's abusing the system. She has the freedom to sue, and she has sued the government a number of times now, which resulted in her getting hormone treatments, laser hair removal and psychotherapy. Well the laser hair removal wasn't enough so now she's pushing for electrolysis to finish the job she feels laser hair removal didn't do well enough.

``My best friend has been killed, and they think I did it," the sobbing spouse told reporters in May 1990, while police searched a Mansfield condo for evidence to link him to her slaying. He allegedly strangled her with the wire from a hanging planter, dumped her body in the back seat of her car, and abandoned the gray Hyundai in the Emerald Square Mall in North Attleborough. ``I didn't do it. Of course I didn't. . . . I didn't do anything to her. I couldn't do that to anyone."
He shaved his beard and fled the state a few hours later. When police pulled him over on charges of speeding and driving drunk in New Rochelle, N.Y., the weepy fugitive told an officer: ``I can't call my wife. I murdered my wife." Then he fought extradition.
Brought back to Massachusetts five months later, Kosilek challenged the state's request for a psychiatric evaluation at Bridgewater State Hospital because, he said, he had been dismissed two years earlier for turning in guards who were abusing inmates. He had been fired, but not for the self-aggrandizing reason he had asserted. Kosilek was canned from the state Department of Correction facility for not mentioning on his job application the small matter of having served three years in prison in Illinois for theft and attempted burglary.

I believe your premise is right, but this particular case isn't the one it should be applied to. I would rather the government pay to have the surgery done for a deserving citizen who really needs it then this con man.
