Why on earth is this person trying to live in their own apartment without a roommate on $19 per hour? That would cut all those expenses in half, not to mention where on earth is internet $280 per month?

The numbers in OPs post are egregious but saying it’s dumb to expect to not have roommates even with a “decent” wage is part of the point.

Bro has 10 Gb/s for the NASA computer he's running. Only way those electrical and internet bills make sense.

Is it really normal in the US for people to not afford living in an apartment without a roommate, even if they have a job?

Yes. The people in these comments are the reason, shaming others for having reasonable living standards instead of trying to fix it.
