I was pretty worried that this show would actually be exploiting poor people. I was wrong.
Neither of these people were poor. More like average middle-middle class people. The average household income in the US is approximately 54k. The Bronsons made considerably more than that on one income! It's sad that he lost his leg in war, but they aren't a needy family at all!
The Bergins were worse off IMO, but still they made a decent amount of money, especially for Charlotte. I moved to the South several years ago because the COL vs. wages is the best in the country.
So these were just middle class people who were willing to lower themselves to be on a trashy reality TV show (they had to have known it was something like this).
So I will keep watching and I will NOT feel guilty.
