So are you not a statist when it doesn’t stand to benefit you personally?
I am a nearly deaf adult. In my view, the federal government has no legitimate authority to make a private business person accommodate my disability.
I’ve got a friend who is color-blind. I believe the government should mandate that no one can use bright colors anymore, everything must be repainted in different shades of grey, with cross-hatch patterns to differentiate between the different shades.
And all the street lights should be redone so that instead of red we see “Stop You Vehicle” and yellow becomes “Wait a minute, slow down,” while green becomes “You can go through this inersection.
Oh, but then the non-English speaking people couldn’t read it.
Well, the street lightss will have to be multilingual then...

No, I’m not a statist, and other than enjoying captions on the TV, I haven’t personally benefitted from the ADA. The ADA requirements certainly aren’t that imposing. Is it too much to ask for you to purchase a $100 captioned telephone to help your employee do a better job on the phone? That’s the only thing you’d be required to do. You dont have to hire the HOH or deaf perhaps they remind you too much of your own disability and your lack of understanding or compassion. You’d probably be against installing toilets for your employees if it weren’t required by law. I could go on but the ADA is a great idea. Yes, it’s been abused by some, but like OSHA, it is good for business.
