When you start looking at the vast majority of the population and claim they are mentally ill; you might want to look in the mirror instead. When you look at less than half a percent of the population and claim they are mentally ill; you might be on to something.

And that aside, I was simply commenting on the absurd notion that we "cater" to the vast majority. The vast majority of parking space in America are non-handicapped reserved; by that logic we cater to the non-handicapped.

Believing in impossible magic is delusional.  Just because a lot of people believe it does not mean it is not delusional.
