The ADA forces employers, businesses, and places of public accommodation to suffer the expense and burdens of implementing the law, rather than funding the law with public tax dollars.
Why should my taxes pay from a wheelchair ramp into an auto parts store? Gettest thou real.
Example: The Appalachian trail in the white mts NH has a hut at the lake of the clouds on Mt Washington. You have to hike up 4,000 ft of rocky trails to get there. When they decided to renovate they had to make it wheel chair accessible. That’s our government for you, no common sense allowed. Just to be jokers, when they opened the renovated hut a bunch of (very fit) hikers carried a compatriot up the 4000 ft to the hut in his wheel chair to christen the ramp.

And where do you think those “public tax dollars” will come from? The employers, businesses, and people. We, The People, pay for it all anyway. If it costs a business an extra $5,000 to do something, they’re not going to eat the cost - they’re going to pass that to their customers, aka, the People.
Ever notice how the first 50 parking spaces at Lowes are vacant other than 2 or 3 vehicles? Truly disabled people don’t do a lot of home improvement, but government knows best, as always.
