[blindLaw] Respect for Others

[Sanho Steele-Louchart]

Mike,

I'm intrigued by the premise that policies and laws don't solve the
problem resulting in the conclusion that "so we should stop doing it."
I'm presuming 'it' means instituting such policies and laws. I'm
trying to imagine a parallel--getting rid of the ADA, IDEA, and the
Social Security Act because they don't actually abolish ableism in and
of themselves.
