The Great Society programs, launched by President Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1960s, significantly expanded the federal government's role in social welfare, particularly through amendments to the Social Security Act. This included the establishment of Medicare and Medicaid, which provided health coverage for the elderly and low-income individuals, respectively. These changes marked a shift toward a more active government involvement in ensuring citizens' well-being, reflecting a broader commitment to combating poverty and inequality. Overall, the Great Society redefined the federal government's responsibilities in social services, emphasizing the importance of access to healthcare and economic support.
