If you want to call deception, back it up. Show a link showing it increased, or at least do as the other poster did, and at least attribute a possible cause.
Or even better...show how many MORE contractors there are today then at another point in time.

You do understand what "non sequitur" means, right? The precise number of stated employees ( and how that definition can be altered to adjust the numbers) has absolutely NO relevance to the cost of government, the cost of regulation, or the impact on people's lives and prosperity.
"Big government" is big precisely because its effect on the nation and the individual is very large.

Funny how you have wholly irrational premises for your arguments. Always.

Fact is, the federal government continues to deficit spend and exert more influence in our lives than ever before.
Weather statistically true or not, the amount of workers it employs to accomplish such deeds is moot.
