There are things that can be done help limit access. UBCs for sure.

Bigger cities are expensive and lots of small towns aren't cheap either. There are good programs to help the very poor but the working poor and at the lower end of middle income range are having a very tough time. They are also most impacted by inflation.

Health care and health insurance are unreasonably expensive. My wife and I would have to pay $2000/month without the ACA subsidy.
