History

Ugo [173]3 years ago
6 0
         Lyndon Johnson saw his Great Society as a plan to alleviate the poor of the country from the cycle of poverty through reforms that encouraged public education. Most of the Great Society programs focused on education and job training. Jonson created the Department of Transportation and the Department of Housing and Urban Development to help poor towns and improve living conditions, these programs also helped create jobs. Johnson also created "Project Head Start" which was a antipoverty program that sought to improve the performance of the underprivileged in school by creating pre-school programs for children whose parents could not afford local pre-schooling. Johnson also created Medicaid which was a governmental financial assistance program for adults with children with physical or mental handicaps. 
        Basically he was seriously focused on improving the lives of the poor, to lift them out of poverty ultimately making a "Great Society" where there were no impoverished people, or to a least limit that number to a small amount. He Aimed most of his reforms at this goal...Hoped this helped...

How did FDR use his words to encourage public support for U.S. involvement in WWII?""
zysi [14]

Answer:

FDR looked at the war from the American lenses and the world lenses.

Explanation:

FDR was sympathetic towards the Great Britain and France, however, he could not keep on maintaining America's isolationist policy. Thus, FDR came to a point where he could not ask the Americans to become neutral at all. He therefore, did his best to support the two countries, particular Britain by promising an "short of war."

First, he silenced the isolationist stance and voices. Second, he encouraged people to support the war, citing that it would test America's preparedness for a future aggression. Lastly, he claimed that the war will check the Japanese who had bombed the Pearl Habour. This will keep invasion in check and destroy any potential threats.
