Even if all disabled people would have been poor, if there was enough of them, then relevant solutions would have emerged (similar to how cheap food came to be).

Disablities are unfortunate and sometimes sad. However, the way the market works is not. There are limited resources, and they are being distributed where the demand is highest.

Apple spent plenty of years doing what they felt was right, and not chase the highest demand.

On that example alone, I feel you're being short sighted.

Put another way, you're under the impression this is about people with special needs. Not at all. This is about people with special needs AND the people who believe they deserve the same "fair chance" the rest of us get. Not all of use are self-absorbed.

p.s. re: "similar to how cheap food came to be"

Seeing how this got us obesity and all the diseases that go with it, I'm not so sure you're model / mindset is the one that's ideal. Perhaps it's time to think more holistically?
