What are the pros & cons of the great society?

The Great Society was a set of domestic programs proposed or enacted in the United States on the initiative of President Lyndon B. Johnson. two main goals of the Great Society social reforms were the elimination of poverty and racial injustice. new major spending programs that addressed education, medical care, urban problems, and transportation were launched during this period. the Great Society in scope and sweep resembled the New Deal domestic agenda of Franklin D. Roosevelt, but differed sharply in types of programs enacted. 

Some Great Society proposals were stalled initiatives from John F. Kennedy's New Frontier. Johnson's success depended on his skills of persuasion, coupled with the Democratic landslide in the 1964 election that brought in many new liberals to Congress. anti-war Democrats complained that spending on the Vietnam War choked off the Great Society. while some of the programs have been eliminated or had their funding reduced, many of them, including Medicare, Medicaid, and federal education funding, continue to the present. the Great Society's programs expanded under the administrations of Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford.

Hope this helps.
