Agree

Regardless, we should create more social programs to address poverty

Bush's administration did support social programs to address poverty. For example, he signed the No Child Left Behind Act in 2002, which aimed to close the achievement gap between students of different socioeconomic statuses. However, his support for such programs was not unconditional, as he also pushed for welfare reform.
