The Census bump was in 2010 and http://www.opm.gov/feddata/HistoricalTables/TotalGovernmentSince1962.asp clearly shows that and provides a footnote.

Are you deliberately trying to look stupid? I’ve provided the numbers and a link (from the government- same agency in fact).

Here’s the number of executive branch, non DoD employees by year:

1964 855000

2005 1224000
2006 1227000
2007 1237000
2008 1289000
2009 1357000
2010 1360000
Obviously this is not a ‘Census bump’.

Again you are clinging to deceptive numbers which mix DoD personnel and civilian agencies. In 1964 we were in the middle of the Cold War. By your link the military had 1.1 million more active duty people for the DoD to deal with.

The funniest thing about your cited data is that the increase due to the census from your own numbers was only 13K more people than the previous year. That’s nothing. So much for a ‘census bump’.
