Answer 1

The major cause of the growing middle class of government workers throughout the 1960s was **the success of Johnson’s war on poverty**. This initiative led to the expansion of government programs and the creation of new jobs, particularly in social services and related fields, which contributed to the growth of the middle class in this sector.
