Never seen a worse analogy. Most people who call ADA bad don't have an understanding of ADA at all.
ADA is not absolute accommodation, but reasonable accommodation. A large company needs to have ramps, physical notions of floor in an elevator, etc. But does mom and pop gas station need to have grab bars in their bathroom? no. The cost in cases like this put undue stress on the business. Does every shop aisle need to be wheelchair accessible? Another no. But if someone wants something down that aisle, an associate needs to take a few and go get it.
Every aspect of ADA has exceptions.
So, hopefully all the so called experts here will actually go out and understand the subject at hand before saying anything. You can start here http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/adahom1.htm
