e: By your very claim the law is easily usurped, so there is definitely a problem with it.
Your claim is similar to saying that since laws against murder and theft are still sometimes broken, there's a problem with the laws.
e Mine is to take away a known argument, so what is your solution given that enforcement is so difficult?
Except, you see, enforcement is not really that difficult. Many employers often barely even bother to hide the fact that they're discriminating.
Paft; "Most disabled people, most black Americans, who remember what it was like before the passage of those laws will cite them as an improvement -- not an impediment." e: I never disagreed with that, I just stated what I believe can be done to improve compliance.
Your solution is to remove a protection. Limiting liability is the equivalent to giving major corporations permission to screw their employees -- they'll just pay a small fee for doing it and count it as the cost of doing business.
