That may be true, but how can the economic activity require more government dependents than the number of people providing the activity? Can it make sense that there are more people working for the Dept. of Agriculture than there are farmers in the US?

I don’t know the full scope of the Dept. of Agriculture’s responsibilities, but I do know they extend beyond looking after farmers. Fer instance, in the last 36 months, the Dept. of Agriculture has funneled nerly a billion dollars into providing high speed internet access to rural areas.
My opinion on the gubmint workers versus private sector is different than most. I believe there’s a place for gubmint work, but that folks have to pay attention to how the money is spent. That “tension” between the public and gubmint insures accountability.
