Absolutely. You’ll rarely see people openly admitting that the disabled deserve less, but they’ll adopt ableist tactics through dismissal/denial (disability isn’t that big of a deal, or disabled people are actually just faking it), or individualist thought terminating cliches (disabled people might be far more likely to be in poverty or unemployed, but we all have equality of opportunity, and you’re actually the ableist bigot if you think they need accomodations).
Capitalism is so rational that it won’t accept 80% of the average output from someone even if they are willing to do it. They only want your labor if you can do average or better. Anything less is grounds for dismissal if you even get hired at all.
Quite apart from any human question of right to not work, or dignified conditions of labor, there is so much waste of labor power.
