We've had a shortage of housing since the 80s but it wasn't a "crisis" while it was just low income households that were suffering
It only became a "crisis" when the children of middle income parents couldn't afford to buy their own homes

@bobrmitchell Funding thirty years of pensions with fewer people in employment and paying taxes is an impossibility. When originally set you could expect to get maybe five if you were lucky.

Thought this might be a good moment to float this back up on the timeline. I'm so proud of this show and the people behind it: The ones who work on it and the ones who watch it and make it mean something. Our stories matter. #ALeagueOfTheirOwn
Would I like #ALOTO to get renewed properly?
- Yes, of course.

We heard that the #ALeagueOfTheirOwn team is fighting for #MoreThanFour eps. The TV Team got together to talk about what this show means to us; we want you to share your stories and help us help Amazon understand the fullness of the series' impact. #ALOTO https://t.co/YS5PnWH1DK
