- hackernewds 2y agoNixon loved big government -- two of the federal programs most despised -- the Environmental Protection Agency and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Nixon signed the Clean Air Act and Title which guaranteed equal educational opportunities for women. Nixon increased Social Security Benefits, proposed making more people eligible for welfare, and offered a plan for universal health care. Nixon's Detente sought to scale back or arms race with the Soviets. Nixon was quite liberal by current standards.
