I didn't say have no protection. I said they should have defined "disabled" and "reasonable accommodation" in the law, when they wrote the law.
Nobody wants a vague warm fuzzy of good intentions - they want to force their boss to obey a law. And when the law does not spell out what is required, or who is covered, it not only fails to help people some of the time - it fails EVERY time. EVERY claim of an ADA violation had to be tested with a lawsuit, to begin with. Only over 20 years have the courts provided definitions that could have been provided instantly by Congress.
I don't think the above example is extreme. I don't think a paraplegic who can medically sit behind a desk for 40 hours a week, can sue his employer for asking him to sit behind a desk 40 hours a week. I think you'd see them suing over other work restrictions which he cannot meet.
"To find out what doctors would do if faced with those difficult situations, Medscape surveyed [US] physicians' attitudes about some of the most frequent and wrenching ethical issues of our time. Over 10,000 physicians responded to the survey, which asked about end-of-life dilemmas; pain treatment; insurance reimbursement; colleague relations; withholding information from a patient with a terminal disease; patient privacy at the expense of other people; romantic relationships with patients; and others. The survey was fielded in August - September 2010.
3. Should physician-assisted suicide be allowed in some cases?
Yes, 45.8%
No, 40.7%
It depends, 13.5%
... Medscape's Ethics Survey email was sent on 8/18/10 to 151,000 US-based Medscape physicians spanning more than 25 specialties.
The invitation to participate included a sweepstakes to win an iPad.
The promotion period ran from August 18 to September 15, 2010.
The number of respondents was 10,078."

But since as of last year your doctors are worried that you aren't killing enough elderly, the moral guilt of the Dutch seems established.
"It kind of got buried in the /r/politics thread, but this group seems to be where Santorum is getting his numbers from. He's not actually making things up, he's just quoting others who are making things up.

Forgot the link above.
Written by a Dutchman who put his own relative through the chutes.
(And isn't that extremely odd, given how RARE it is.)
BTW
"The Remmelink Report found that 0.8 percent of the deaths at the time were done without the explicit request of the patient; in 59 percent of the cases, the physician had some information about the patient
hmm can I really say that about a whole country?
Yes.
What about Oregon, which has legal physician assisted suicide?
Them too.
What about Einstein, is he murderous?
Hmmm. Gonna hafta go with "yes!"
Here's a link to a position paper from last year by KNMG

" It would be impossible to describe every type of disability and every type of job and the accommodation required."
That's what the courts had to do, point by point, with the Supreme Court eventually dragged in several times to throw out some districts and uphold others. For instance -
Person with 12-hour shift 3x a week job gets heart trouble. Doctor says she can work 8 hour shift 5x a week. Employer says he can't give her 8 hour shift and hire 4 hr temp 3x a week. Fires her. She sues for violation of ADA.
Is somebody who can work 40 hours a week "disabled"?
Does the employer have to hire temp or assign some 12-hour shift worker a 4-hour shift or convert to 8 hr shifts for everybody as "reasonable accommodation"?
Supreme Court finally said such a person is "not disabled". in 2004 I believe. Over 10 years after ADA was passed. And they took on this issue because one appeals district in the South said "no" and one in Midwest said "yes". The answer depended on whehter you lived in Chicago or Atlanta. And what about that plaintiff, who sued in district court, and appeals, and finally landed in the Supreme Court? Wouldn't her life had been better if she'd been told "no" by the lawyers she talked to in the first place, because Congress had already said "if you can work 40 hours a week you're not medically disabled"?
LAPD isn't like it was before the 1991 riots.
Trust us.
ADA was stupidest law in American history
ordered all employers in USA to provide reasonable accomodation to the disabled
without defining reasonable accomodation
or disability
the courts eventually have by now, at huge cost and delay and conflicting rulings in different states, which could have been avoided if Congress had done its damn job in 1991
Nope. Your first reactions to this news was that Rick Santorum was making the whole thing up to scaremonger the weak.
When it was pointed out to you, that your own government said that's what your doctors were up to, and Rick Santorum got his figures from your government, THEN you insist that he has no right to use a 20-year-old report since OF COURSE things are different...
There's no OF COURSE about it. Iran is still run the way it was in 1980. If you've made changes go ahead and show us. And we're not just arguing about tax rates, or inflation. We're talking about a fat chunk of your medical profession, causing 10% of fatalities in your kingdom, most of the time without the consent of the victim. And your prosecutors looking the other way whenever it was shown, after the fact, that the patient COULD HAVE lawfully asked for it and received it, so, the fact they never did was just some technical violation.
I'd have said OF COURSE you'd never sink that low, but since you DID, you forfeit a presumption that you would never ever ever really do that.
ohhhhh I bet it's over Wornstrum not being able to get bacon in China
"Rick Santorum is talking about our present day situation I presume, as there is no relevance to talk about a situation of 20 years ago in the present tense when things have changed in the meantime. (unless you're trying to falsify information)"
then go ahead and announce you changed it as baldly as you informed us of how bad it was, before you guys get miffed that we read your own govts reports
start with 86
doh
whew reading that I was afraid he was gonna ask for asylum here

oh wait that was a straight question
when your own govt says 10% of your national deaths were caused by doctors injecting poison, most of the time without consent, I don't see how you get pissed that an American read the report
you can explain how that's no longer the case, instead of whining we paid attention to the facts of life over there
rin primo is right here, you can exchange emails
