as a share of GDP going back to 1960.

Spending went up a lot in the Sixties, then leveled out (but didn't go down) under Nixon-Ford, declined a bit under Carter, exploded under Reagan, leveled out under Bush I, declined significantly under Clinton, exploded again under Bush II, and has eclined significantly again under Obama.

The lesson of the last forty years, if you want big government, vote Republican.
