I think the point that's trying to be made is that many military families (as in, spouses and children of enlistedmen) are often on food stamps and other forms of assistance because sometimes they're just not paid enough, even with signing bonuses. Not to mention the stress of "why can't we see daddy?" questions while your spouse is on tour.
We learned about some of those problems when I was studying for my master's degree - I guess that if you're single you can get by pretty well but when you're married, moving around all the time (so your spouse has trouble finding work) and you've got a couple of kids, money gets EXTREMELY tight.
