Real Husbands of Hollywood (2013)

Episode Overview

What's not to appreciate about the Americans with Disabilities Act? It aims to enhance the lives of those with disabilities. However, Penn and Teller speak with various business owners and disability advocates who argue that the act primarily benefits unscrupulous lawyers initiating baseless lawsuits against entire communities, alleging that businesses violate disabled individuals' rights. This leads to a decline in job opportunities for people with disabilities, ultimately undermining the ADA’s intent. Penn and Teller contend that the law is overly expansive, suggesting that individual businesses should have the authority to decide whom they serve, rather than the government imposing regulations.
