Lyndon B Johnson's "Great Society Plan", which was a War on Poverty
"In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson announced his “Great Society” proposal, which would create new welfare programs, expand food stamps, give birth to Medicaid and Medicare, fund the arts, and more. It would also continue the departure from nearly 200 years of American tradition and increase the federal government’s involvement in local education significantly. President Johnson and those who supported his programs believed that greater government involvement in education, especially preschool through high school, could break the cycle of poverty for poor families.
When the President told the American people that they must accept “greater government activity in the affairs of the people,” little did they know how destructive a bargain they were making. In 1965, the Great Society’s “War on Poverty” began a massive infusion of federal tax dollars and involvement into pre-K and K–12 education. It also created new taxpayer-underwritten student loans and grants for the general public to attend college. Since then, federal taxpayers have spent $2 trillion on K–12 education alone—to say nothing of the billions spent annually on student loans and grants. "
