This is literally a history question so stop rejecting it.Using documents 1 - 3, make three claims about the actions President Johnson and his administration undertook in order to foster economic growth. Be sure your claim explains how the action taken would foster economic growth. Support each claim with evidence from at least one document. **Document 1**The Great Society rests on abundance and liberty for all. It demands an end to poverty and racial injustice, to which we are totally committed in our time. But that is just the beginning... I want to talk to you today about the places where we begin to build the Great Society—in our cities, in our countryside, and in our classrooms....In the remainder of this century urban population will double, city land will double, and we will have to build homes, highways and facilities equal to all those built since this country was first settled. So in the next 40 years we must rebuild the entire urban United States... Our society will never be great until our cities are great.A second place where we begin to build the Great Society is in our countryside. We have always prided ourselves on being not only America the strong and America the free, but America the beautiful. Today that beauty is in danger. The water we drink, the food we eat, the very air that we breathe, are threatened with pollution... Green fields and dense forests are disappearing...A third place to build the Great Society is in the classrooms of America. There your children's lives will be shaped. Our society will not be great until every young mind is set free to scan the farthest reaches of thought and imagination. Yet we are still far from that goal.Today, 8 million adult Americans, more than the entire population of Michigan, have not finished five years of school. Nearly 54 million—more than one-quarter of all America—have not even finished high school. Each year more than 100,000 high school graduates, with proved ability, do not enter college because they cannot afford it... Most of our qualified teachers are underpaid, and many of our paid teachers are unqualified. So we must give every child a place to sit and a teacher to learn from.Poverty must not be a bar to learning, and learning must offer an escape from poverty...— Source: Lyndon B.
