The government leaders were compassionate/kind in the 60’s is precis.I said it was precis because during this time the government want and did help the poor united states citizens by creating programs like food stamps, so they can try to get ahead. The big idea is that the president Johnson legislation’s use money wisely. The theme to consider when thinking about this topic are economies and change.For example the united states help a big portion of the their poor people and they didn’t even give a little they gave over $1 billion dollars in schools and made sure they could get food and have medical care which really help the poor people even some today. For instance on lines 8-9 state ” The great society establish medicare and medicaid which provide health care to the poor and to the elderly.However, these programs took a lot of money from working class people and the wealthy.For instance, line 10 states”….$ 1 billion in Federal funding…. .This allows us to see how president Johnson legislation’s provide programs for the poor to help them out during the great society of 1960’s.In conclusion, we see a major focus on economies and change. I picked this particular theme because the government had to take money form the united states to give to these programs that change a lot of peoples lives in the 1960’s.This was important because it helps us to understand the about the present better because we still have them now in 2018 and they still help over a million people every day. Perhaps people should look at a page in president Johnson’s book.
