Why did the Great Society produce controversy?

The Great Society, a set of domestic programs launched by President Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1960s, produced controversy due to its expansive government intervention in social welfare and civil rights. Critics argued that the programs led to increased federal spending and bureaucracy, fostering dependency on government aid. Additionally, the initiative faced pushback from conservatives who believed it undermined traditional values and individual responsibility. The societal changes it promoted, particularly in race relations and poverty alleviation, also sparked significant political and cultural backlash.


Who was the Southern President during the civil war?

Andrew Johnson was the first post-Civil War President from the south, but he was never elected: He assumed office upon the death of Abraham Lincoln and was never re-elected (in fact, he was nearly impeached). Harry Truman was from Missouri, which was a border state so he could possibly be considered, but the first clear-cut southern President was Lyndon Johnson (Texas). While his first term was assuming the Presidency after Kennedy's death, unlike Andrew Johnson, Lyndon Johnson was then re-elected on his own. Since then, there have been three 'Southern' Presidents - Jimmy Carter (Georgia), Bill Clinton (Arkansas), and George W Bush (Texas). George HW Bush is from Massachusetts, so wouldn't count.
