Some people believe that the government should guarantee its citizens a basic standard of living by raising the minimum wage, providing housing assistance to the poor, and offering health care coverage to everyone. what type of economist would favor this view?

I believe the answer is keynesian economists
Keynesians' view was heavily influenced by John Maynard Keynes, which advocated many forms of Government intervention in order to achieve full employment in society.
Things such as welfare, taxation increase,and housing assistance, are examples of Government intervention to allocate wealth from the rich to the poor
