Autistics are less employable than addicts (imo)

And it's because the system is broken, not the autistic.

Because companies are invariably based on lies.

The last thing a company wants is someone intelligent, observant,
with a social conscience and who actually want to do the work.
In my own experience I have ended up reporting and nearly criminally convicting 3 of my
former bosses. The closest I got was one who ran away. The next closest I was able
to shutdown their use of unpaid labour.
This is just not someone people want to hire.

An alcoholic on the other hand, just takes the money to feed their habit,
and shuts up, crossing any line of integrity to feed their addiction.

Ahh yes, the shame given by others for being a whistleblower. You do the right thing and yet get punished for it. I know that feeling all too well. Many humans are so predictable in being immoral.

I think actually there is some interesting formula that many scams rely on the immorality of the target.
So there is some interesting feedback loop here.

Obviously it's not always the case, and other scams rely on exploiting human goodness,
but there are some more sophisticated ones which rely on ripping someone
else off.
