-        Universal Design is a philosophy of design whose goals are to make
-        something that works for the largest number of people. By incorporating
-        inclusive design methods and implementing standards designed to help
-        impaired users, a web designer can easily create accessible websites
-        with only a few new tools.

+        Universal Design is more than accessibility, though. It is the recognition that an approach which removes barriers from a user's path is just good design. Designing a website to be universally used opens up its content to the widest possible audience. Design choices that make a website easier for disabled users also make it easier to use for everyone.

+        The amount of disabled people in the United States alone (<a href="https://www.disabilitystatistics.org/reports/acs.cfm?statistic=1">see here</a>) comprises an estimated 323,289,900 people. Meaning that an inaccessible site can prevent a huge section of the population from interacting with your site, making universal design an extremely practical decision for most site designers.

+        Lastly <a href="https://www.fcc.gov/general/section-508-rehabilitation-act">the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 Section 508</a>  requires Federal agencies to make electronic/information technology accessible to people with disabilities. This also extends to employers with federal contracts (or subcontracts) and those receiving federal financial assistance. There is certainly only a subsection of websites, but not a small one. For many, designing an inaccessible website is not an option to begin with.
