Answer 1

The war on poverty concentrated on equipping the poor with skills and rebuilding their spirit and motivation. So correct option is B.

The term "war on poverty" generally refers to a collection of initiatives proposed by Johnson's administration, approved by Congress, and carried out by his Cabinet agencies. The war on poverty focused on teaching the poor new skills and reviving their spirit and motivation. Many of the programs of the war on poverty, such as Medicaid, Medicare, food stamps, Head Start, Job Corps, VISTA, and Title I, are still in place today. The Nixon administration largely dismantled the OEO, transferring its functions to a variety of other federal agencies, and the office was renamed in 1975 before being permanently closed in 1981.
