Diderot... Those numbers are interesting, especially those of the legislative and judicial that doubled from 1964 to 1988, but have held relatively steady since then. Those are numbers I would like to see reduced.
Furthermore, these numbers just start to illustrate how weak and nearly liberal the Bush's actually were as Presidents... and how there was really no difference between them, and Bill Clinton, and how all of them have an even eerily similar foreign policies to Johnson. Then since Reagan had several financial similarities with Hoover, Coolidge, Teddy and even Kennedy... the last truly conservative Republican President was in the 1800's.
