The United States Government is so big, it is the largest single employer in our country, with over 1.3 million direct GS rated employees. This 1.3 million people control a total workforce, depending on how you count, between 9 million and 24 million people.
This should worry you, because the Democrats seem to want to control this entire workforce in an effort to push forward it's political partisan agenda; instead of doing what the government should be doing, which is providing for our defense, ensuring justice, providing for our safety and preserving our liberty.1
