Yes. I think the real(er) problem is that there's more to mobility than the 'economic' side of it. Social, psychological, etc.

But most national buses aren't that cheap.

EDIT: and I want to make it clear to anyone who reads through that entire Slate Star Codex post that, no, the elves of Mirkwood don't have a fucking thing to do with moose. That's a Peter Jackson Invention TM. I wonder if there's a profession in the insanity I demonstrate in actually caring about any of this. Luckily, my thirty seconds was salvaged when I stumbled upon this illuminatory post -- The Hobbit: An Unexpected Moose.

Most of the issue is new jobs, new home, and needing to have a paycheck to move.

All the more support for enacting a basic income.
