    Great Society: A set of domestic programs in the United States launched by President Lyndon B Johnson in 1964-65. The main goal was the elimination of poverty and racial injustice. It attempted to move beyond the New Deal of Franklin D. Roosevelt and provide a variety of social programs to uplift the nation. Out of this effort came the "war on poverty," Medicare, environmental legislation, educational funding, and civil rights laws.

    New Deal: Had programs in response to the Great Depression, and focused on what historians call the "3 Rs": Relief, Recovery, and Reform. That is Relief for the unemployed and poor; Recovery of the economy to normal levels; and Reform of the financial system to prevent a depression.
