What were the major features of Lyndon Johnson's Great Society?

The main feature of President Johnson's Great Society was
a push to eliminate poverty.


Johnson attempted to do this
in a number of ways.  He attempted to do this through education, providing Head Start
programs for disadvantaged children who were too young for school and creating the
work-study program to help college students.  He attempted to do this through job
training programs like the Job Corps.  He attempted to do this by creating the Medicaid
program that would allow poor people access to good health care.  Finally, he attempted
to do this with the Community Action Program, which gave money to poor communities to
improve themselves.


In all of these ways, Johnson was
attempting to end poverty.  This was the main feature of the Great
Society
