stop forcing disabled people who are incapable of doing certain jobs to do those jobs

2 things. 1 is that nobody is forcing you to do jobs you are incapable of, And 2 is that you aren't incapable of scanning bananas and packs of meat and putting them into bags.

Cars should not be the only transportation

They aren't.

Everything about everything you have said here screams to me that you just want everyone to do everything for you. Nobody likes dealing with other people. You will always have to deal with things you don't like and things that stress you out. I would also be considered poor, but I don't act like its everyone else's fault for not catering to my own mental retardation and not giving me money and not flying me around everywhere I need to go by helicopter, but even if you somebody did that for you, you would probably still complain that it's too loud and.
Buy some earplugs and stop crying. Somebody in the assigned male thread said they make a special kind that lets you still hear somebody who is talking to you or some shit.

Here's the fun part, I actually am, and found that out the hard way. I can handle being in a grocery store maybe an hour max before I get overloaded. That's how it is.

Infrastructure in the south is notoriously poor and racism and classism are still alive and well, which is the main reason public transit is non-existant in most places. Like it or not those aren't good things and will have to be overcome eventually, unless you want the Metro Atlanta area to become a giant, infinitely wide highway with nothing else there (and even then traffic would probably still be a nightmare).

Highway construction also destroyed many poor, mainly non-white neighborhoods in the past. Which isn't actually a good thing despite how much you hate black people because you still aren't over one making fun of you in middle school and had your brain rotted by /pol/ echochambers.

Being able to ride the train to a spot where you are 3 blocks away from whatever it is you will be going to (because you obviously cant work, you get overloaded!) isnt going to make you not poor. Its not going to give the homeless money, and its not going to make racists fall in love with black people. You can work, you can drive. You have done it before, you're just being a baby about it. You have arms and legs, stop blaming all your problems on autism.

Even when I was working, I wasn't making enough to afford a car. When I had a car thats basically where my entire paycheck went.

Cars are expensive and not everyone can afford them. That's why they shouldn't be the only mode of transportation available

You know, even if cars were the only option (which they’re not, you’re just lazy), most people would still be able to get around by having others in their lives who DO own a vehicle (the barrier of entry for which is low if you’re not lazy) help then by giving a ride, which is only out of your depth if you’re an insufferable cunt (which, based on your participation in this thread, you are).

Damn so you act as an unpaid chauffeur to all your friends whenever they need to go somewhere, right? Just drop everything if you're at work or w/e and drive people around?

Take the bus then, cars literally aren't the only form of transportation. I would be sorry if the busses suck ass, but by the sounds of it, you could never be happy with anything anyway.

What the actual fuck are you going on about here? I haven't said shit about black people. For all your dumbass knows I could be black. I'm not, but you didn't know that. I don't know your race either, and I don't give a shit what it is because it doesn't matter. You are attacking me for things I never even implied. I don't even own a car, I don't have a job, because I'm a lazy piece of shit, but at least I own up to that, unlike you. But, you could be referring to everyone in the thread, which, if thats the case, you're not entirely wrong, but you're not actually giving any reasons why trains would help as much as you act like they would other than "TRAINS ARE GOOD". As again, they cost more to ride, and cant bring you as close to where you need to be as a bus, or a car. You cant request a stop on a train, you're stuck on it until it gets to where its going, and the 3 people sharing the train car with you are not going to put up with you throwing a tantrum because you got "overloaded" by the train. The highways are already there, and they aren't going to go away.

Damn so you act as an unpaid chauffeur to all your friends whenever they need to go somewhere, right? Just drop everything if you're at work or w/e and drive people around?

I can agree with you on this one though, kinda dumb to make other people drive you around all the time if you aren't like, severely disabled (which you aren't, you're just lazy). But try to respond to everything a post has in it, instead of ignoring literally everything but one sentence.

 

[McMitch]

Damn so you act as an unpaid chauffeur to all your friends whenever they need to go somewhere, right? Just drop everything if you're at work or w/e and drive people around?

Yes, every time. Even to people whom I knew but didn’t exactly like. If you’re not an insufferable cunt, you typically schedule ahead of time for someone to give you a ride.

Sounds like a good way to get fired, if you're constantly leaving work to drive people around.

Yeah and my dad works at Nintendo. I've met morbidly obese and physically disabled people that can do more work than you if what you are saying is true.

I like how the incompetency and blatant corruption of ATL politics seems to be always attributed to racism and classism. Are you telling me a city that has at least 70% of it's government employees be black are secretly a bunch of racists against their own folk? Like damn that's a reach I ever seen of one.

Funny how you live in Atlanta(Inside or outside the perimeter?) & you clearly never been to bankhead before. That place is one of the worst places in the US and it's of it's own doing, MARTA can't even save them from their own misery.

I don’t know if your poor reading comprehension comes from being retarded; on top of being a lazy, insufferable cunt, or if you’re too lazy to read more than one sentence of my post. This level of ad absurdist arguing may work on Reddit, where the minutiae of how you type your argument (on the internet!) has more bearing on its validity than the actual merit of the argument, but here you’re just playing your hand at how retarded you really are.

 

[DavidS877]

I can't actually fathom tolerating a train but not WalMart. Commuter trains are a crush of people and except maybe black friday WalMart never gets nearly that bad. Maybe MARTA doesn't have enough passengers to be a problem, I've only ridden it twice and don't remember, but any place with 'good' public transit the commute lines would suck for anyone with sensory or people problems.

 

[CreamyHerman’s]

Last time I rode MARTA was 3 years ago when I was working in Midtown, and while it's not packed, it's really quality of the people you ride with. I used to seemingly ride with black isrealites and schizophrenic Jamaicans who think God is always talking to them. There was homeless people always begging for money and thrown fits if you didn't give them money, and there were always hustler's selling whisky to passengers. It was never a good time

I worked in a grocery store for 5+ years alongside barely-functional retards and autists. As in 'one step away from being in a chair' autists. Nonverbal autists. Autists who wore bibs because they drooled on themselves. The bleeps and bloops of cash registers and the rustling of plastic bags does not compare to being crammed into a train with other people like sardines, or drunks hollering on a bus. Please shut the fuck up.

Like it or not those aren't good things and will have to be overcome eventually, unless you want the Metro Atlanta area to become a giant, infinitely wide highway with nothing else there (and even then traffic would probably still be a nightmare).

Public transport in the south sucks because everything is more spread out and their cities and housing have already been build around that. That's it. To even suggest that there are politicians or urban planners deliberately holding back public transport in the south on the hope that it might inconvenience a black person somewhere is laughable.

Highway construction also destroyed many poor, mainly non-white neighborhoods in the past. Which isn't actually a good thing despite how much you hate black people because you still aren't over one making fun of you in middle school and had your brain rotted by /pol/ echochambers.

Highway construction didn't destroy any neighborhoods. Cut through them, maybe.

Damn so you act as an unpaid chauffeur to all your friends whenever they need to go somewhere, right? Just drop everything if you're at work or w/e and drive people around?

Yes. If you aren't an insufferable asshole then friends should be glad to help you in times of need. Part of not being an insufferable asshole is giving your friend notice that you will need their help, or trying to schedule your affairs around your friend's schedule. If you don't have a car and need constant shuffling, then use Uber. If you're too poor for Uber and too shitty for decent friends, then I guess you're up shit creek.

Sounds like a good way to get fired, if you're constantly leaving work to drive people around.

You wouldn't know.

Cali's HSR had more problems than Musk

I guess it's the fact that HSR will just cost them a tonne of money and not address the actual underlying issues in Californian infrastructure. What's the situation regarding low speed commuter rail in the states anyhow, does it exist or are all rail services either inter- or intracity affiars? I live in a town of around 18,000 people in the UK and we've got a train station that'll get me straight to at least one major city or to another town where I can transfer directly to London, does the US have anything like this or is it just city to city services?

I wasn't making enough to afford a car.

Buy a bike then retard, if you live in a metro area it's more than enough.

It's rare.
There's a bit of it in the LA to San Diego area.

The HSR will have too many stops for partially that reason. The middle part has no functional public transit in the cities or between them. The north end (SF Bay) is pretty decent. LA not so much but better than the rural valley.

I've said before the $100 BILLION this is going to cost(minimum) could be used to significantly improve public transit in the cities and airline travel for the SF region to LA region and probably have enough left over to add a couple lanes to I-5.

Hmm, there's an interesting thought, wonder what it would have cost to add a parallel toll road(or an expansion) to I-5 instead with officially no speed limit. I'm guessing less than $100b.

I had the opportunity to volunteer and work with physically and mentally disabled people in Dubai, a city that r/fuckcars and leftists literally seethes over.
many have dog shit office jobs, some work in manufacturing and some have jobs that requires them to travel ALOT so a car is basically a necessity.

The ones in office jobs now have a stay at home job thanks to the coof so they don't even have to travel or drive to work but even back then their boss are way accommodating, they can take however many breaks they want, free parking, more flexible with timing. They just have to mention what their struggling with at work cuz normal ppl don't know what it's like to be a retard and they will just dump on you the normal workload without knowing.

For those in manufacturing they are stuck with cars cause the office/warehouse is in an industrial area with barely any public transportation, they get by by driving there or their co-worker picks them up as long as they pay for the gas during work day.

and finally for the ones that drive all over the country with inconsistent timings. their gas, hotel/airbrb, food are all paid for by the company and they basically aren't allowed to go solo and always have a partner even if u put 2 mental retards as partners they can still do their job because at least the other one can take a nap or a breather from driving around, and again they still can share their struggles with their boss.

also Dubai itself is beyond accommodating towards disabled people.
They can ride the bus and metro for FREE
They can go through the gay ass toll gates for FREE
There are literally Taxi's dedicated to disabled people that is ergonomically accessible and are equipped with devices to suit their need.
and the government does not care about the cost they will pay full price for anything to make their lives easier

 

[Xarpho's Return]

"Mentally ill autist", what a crock of shit. That's practically a byword for "lazy, talentless NEET".

But okay, I'll humor you. If you are truly are disabled, then your public transit authority will, at reduced rates, send a van out to your destinations with a special calculated route that actually takes you to where you need to go. One of my coworkers uses the service to get home because he is totally blind. At the same time, he works with accessibility equipment and can perform a 9-5 full time job quite well.

Here's the fun part, I actually am, and found that out the hard way. I can handle being in a grocery store maybe an hour max before I get overloaded. That's how it is.

...How is public transit supposed to cure your crippling phobias? If you have some pathological issue with crowds, noise, or people, trains and buses are the worst places to be.

Someone who swallowed the whole "highways are rayciss" dogma has no right to be lecturing others about "muh /pol/ echochamber".

I can guarantee that if highways ignored or skipped these communities then the line among progressives would be that they denied these minorities economic opportunities that not only came with rapid transportion but more convenient logistics for economic growth.

Oh lookie here:

The Better Roads-More Jobs Connection

Studies starting back in the era of interstate construction demonstrated a connection between highway improvement and economic growth. A 1970 study that looked at employment trends between 1958 and 1963 found dramatically higher job growth in urban areas with interstate access. A 1980 report on the impact of the interstate system on rural areas found similar results.

Anyways, it must suck to have your disabilities but you cannot expect society to cater to outliers.

I hope you can find the employment you deserve:
