Sort of. It is probably better but if you don't have stable living conditions, which many people don't, that affects everything else. So you can say that people have access to daycare, but if you involuntarily have to move around a lot that is a real overall decrease in quality of that daycare.

How long did it take after the industrial revolution to convince the power that be that they would have to pay for decent education and living conditions? A hundred year maybe? With the information age they just managed to convince us once again that they don't have to. So hopefully it won't take a hundred years this time, but I am not holding my breath.
