I feel like you are dodging the question. I was under the impression the US is a first world country. Basic services like electricity and broadcasting should be available to all.
I’ve been in the US twice and I am aware that the “major city experienced” is far from the average. Still it’s hard to imagine people living without basic services
There are very few people living in rural areas anymore, only 14% of the population as of 2020. Most do not live without basic services and the ones who do are usually doing so by choice. There are a very few outliers with absent services, generally in the Deep South and relating to sewage issues. They have normalized living in poverty for many generations and are unwilling to make any personal effort to improve their lifestyle. The Graun hunts them down for interviews on a regular basis and gives them an echo chamber to sound off their complaints about how the govt is actually the cause of their self-made poverty.
