The Simpson family has only the husband working, in a mediocre blue-collar job, yet they have enough money to upkeep a two-story house, 3 kids, 2 cars and a pet, in a clean and nice white neighborhood.
Is live in USA really that easy?

he works in a fucking nuclear power plant...

>>129241788
It depends on what part of the US you are living in. If you are living in California, for example, it is impossible to achieve those things with only one person working.

same thing with family guy, king of the hill and american dad. but no, it's not like this at all in reality.

So it all boils down the costs of housing?

Hes literally a control room operator at a nuclear site mate, in the UK thats probably like a 70k a year salary.

No, there was a whole episode where frank grimes went insane thinking about how rewarded homer is despite being an idiot.
>>
>>129241788
It isn't, and wasn't really in the 90's either. It is however the idea of family that existed and still exists. It's what you've been told you should be able to have even though it hasn't really been possible since the 70's

The base pay for a nuclear power plant operator is probably 70-80,000 dollars.

>>129241788
When the Simpsons started in 1990 it was. That was the beauty of the America Dream.
>>
>in a mediocre blue-collar job,

He is a control operator of a Nuclear Power Plant, which is a Union job. My Dad worked as one for 30 years, he was basically just there in case something went wrong. He was making $70k by the time he retired. My parents were divorced, so both worked but both had houses at last as good as on the Simpsons. My Dad bought a new car every other year, traded in the old one, we lived in a white neighborhood and I never saw a nigger, spic or any shitskins until a few started going to our high school in 11th grade.

TL;DR

Yeah, it's that easy.

>>129241788
it was

I just want you to know I read your post buddy. Keep trying, you'll get there someday.

>>129245082
The hard part, though, is getting in the union. At least where I'm from.

Union members know that they have life on easy street, so they guard their spots with their lives, and often pass them down to sons, nephews, etc...

Yet again, it's all about nepotism. And if you don't know someone, you're fucked.

Yes Schlomo, but you should know that already if you're really a jew.

Yes
Just dont live in California or New York

>>129241788
American shows are very unrealistic in this respect. Some of the Friends were living semi-high life in Manhattan in spite of being complete failures. Basically all sitcoms give a strange view of urban American life by assuming that money is a secondary issue.
It's always sunny in Philadelphia is a bit more realistic.
>>
>>129241788
They don't have bricks in America, they make their houses out of "dry walls" which is just strengthened paper mache so their houses are extremely cheap.
>>
>>129242178
the israelis have so many nukes hidden around the place they're used to it

The Simpson's just scrape by. It took them like 25 years to get a new tv and they can never afford to fix the dog and shit.
>>
>>129246158
You know how cheap homes are in small town America?

Doesn't he control a nuclear power plant?
>>
>>129242582
Yes actually

For example:
Wages in Canada have hardly changed since the 80s in terms of dollar amount however cost of living was a lot lower then because we didn't have a chink inflated housing market
>>
>>129241788
It was when the show began. This was the average American family in the mid-80s.

In the midwest, Homer has an excellent job, and would easily be able to provide that lifestyle.

No

To be fair once you already own the house, paying the bills is no big deal. You really wouldn't pay more than someone renting.

My math comes out to ~$12/hr, and ~$1820 a month without tax, and damn does that tax hurt

Everyone knows that he is one of Burns' drones in Sector 7B
Seriously, one of the best gags was Burns always asking Smithers about Homer.

This was actually pretty common until about the mid to late 1980s when the globalists fucked everything up.

Homer is a safety inspector at a nuclear power plant.That's white collar work
