You probably think the federal government has grown dramatically in the last 70 years.
It hasn't.
In fact, the number of federal government civilian employees is only slightly higher now than it was in 1955 (and the US population is more than double what it was in 1955, so in per capita terms the federal government is much smaller than it was in 1955)
