Common sense says I should ignore this, but what the heck...

First off, I assume you know this person because you are a client, or as 
most people would describe you, "a john."  That said, a few corrections.  It 
is transsexual, not "transexual," unless you are trying to make a political 
statement (and a silly one at that).  It is sad that this person has AIDS, 
or more likely is HIV+.  I doubt you know the difference.  BTW, I hope you 
get tested regularly.  If if you are always a top, you can still get the 
virus.  If this person does not want SRS, then she is not a transsexual. 
And it is very rare that people choose sex work for reasons other than 
survival.

Quite frankly, I am not going to waste time correcting your ignorance.  It 
is probably pretty much invincible anyway.  Given that SRS is increasingly 
recognized as medically neccesary, your opinion is of little consequence.

Really?  Why should that matter.  If she is on SSI, she qualifies for 
Medi-Cal.  If she makes enough off of people like you, then no, she would 
not qualify.
