Answer: Great society was launched by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964 to 1965. Great Society was a set of domestic policy initiatives designed to eliminate poverty and racial injustice in the United States, reduce crime and improve the environment. President Johnson in his speech explained that to advance the quality of our American Society, “we have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward to the Great Society. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their governments than the quality of their goods. The Great Society rests on abundance and liberty for all. It demands an end to poverty and racial injustice.”
The great society was aimed to provide aid to education, attack on disease, medicare, urban renewal, beautification, conservation, development of depressed regions, a wide-scale fight against poverty, control and prevention of crime and delinquency, and the removal of obstacles to vote.

True, above in the “pro” portion we highlighted the fact that Oregon doesn’t collect sales tax on purchases. However, all states have roads, police protection and or other services they must provide for residents and they must raise funds to pay for it somehow. Oregon’s income tax burden is one of the highest in the nation. It is progressive, meaning lower income earners pay a lower percentage than those with high incomes. Income tax rates start at 5% and rise as income does, to a top rate of 9.9%.
Oregon has a higher cost of living than most other states. Housing in most of Oregon is not cheap. Okay, it’s actually quite expensive with a median home price far above the national average. The cost of goods and services across a wide range including groceries also costs more in Oregon than most states. The only major cost of living category that runs less in Oregon is the cost of utilities according to the Missouri Economic Research and Information Center (information was derived from Council for Community and Economic Research).
