AP US History
Unit 8 – The Postwar Period and Cold War, 1945–1980
Topic 8.9
If Lyndon B. Johnson had not advanced his "Great Society" vision, how might the American public's perception of government responsibility for social welfare have differed?
Public expectation for government intervention in social issues might be lower.
Government trust grows exponentially due to reduced spending on social programs.
People view governmental roles as solely focused on foreign policy and defense matters only - neglecting domestic affairs completely.
There would still be an expectation for large scale government interventions in social issues.
