  1. I’ve seen a couple threads debating whether or not the US is the best place for people with disabilities to live. I think this is a good data point in favor of the argument that it is not. The US is better than Europe for the havers (though China is getting close to surpassing us both), but is significantly worse for the have-nots.

    Part of it is the spread out geography of the US. Most of it is our hardened refusal to invest in any good public systems; nationalized Healthcare, high speed rail, high quality accessible public housing, etc.
