I don't think I even argued that..I'm just suggesting that not every situation has been thought about.

Either we want everyone to be part of our society,contributing in whatever manner they can and perhaps actually adding to the society they reside in or we don't.Just treating any group as one homogeneous mass won't work. There has to be some way to help them but I guess it's going to be left to some charitable organisation or sponsorship but how much is available to provide mobility like a specially adapted transport I'm not sure. It's not like I see a lot of wheelchair users on public transport.
