I pay the disability tax in taking paratransit rather than the regular bus to get back home from appointments, because the hill by my building is scary-steep.
Of course, my disability has also kept us from moving, because we can't find an accessible apartment in our budget.

“The reality is that it is expensive to be disabled. Research shows that disabled people need at least 28% more income, at least $17,690, to achieve a standard of living similar to that of non-disabled people.”
