“…[The} military options moved further toward a much larger strike which would very likely have to be accompanied by a land and sea invasion… Almost certainly [an invasion of Cuba] would have led to a Soviet military response somewhere in the world. Now before I leave this question, let me go back and say there was one other military alternative which was considered at the time, and that was a quarantine [blockade], and that of course is what the President decided on. It was believed that this would be seen by Khrushchev not in a sense as a military action, but as a message. It was meant to convey the President’s determination to see those weapons removed…” - Robert McNamara, former Secretary of Defense, interview 1998

Evaluate the pros and cons of the Great Society. Did the program achieve its goals?
(Please be detailed but make it short, make it sound like a 13 year old wrote it)

The Great Society was like a mixed bag of candy - some sweet, some sour. On one hand, it helped create important programs like Medicare and Medicaid that gave more people access to healthcare. It also pushed for civil rights laws to make things fairer for everyone. But on the other hand, some people think it made some folks too dependent on government help and didn't fix poverty like it promised. So, while the Great Society did some good things, it didn't tick all the boxes it aimed for.
