Answer 1

Lyndon Johnson introduced a vision called 'The Great Society' aimed at eradicating poverty and racial injustice, particularly expanding government programs and creating new federal agencies.

Step-by-step explanation:

President Lyndon Johnson introduced a vision for America that extended beyond the initiatives of Kennedy, which he termed The Great Society. It was his sweeping domestic agenda aimed at eradicating poverty and racial injustice, similar to FDR's New Deal in terms of its expansion of government programs. Johnson's Great Society included more than 40 programs and led to the creation of new federal agencies such as the Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and also included controversial programs providing direct payments to the poor with the intent of alleviating poverty.
