Not all of these jobs will support a family with good benefits, but they will get someone a better job than no advanced education.

That’s a good point—and remember, for much of the population served by CCs, moving from the underclass to the working class is a huge step up in lifestyle. (Particularly if there are things like paid time off and health insurance benefits attached to a job you can now get.) What counts as what’s necessary to support a family may be different depending on where your experiences lie.
