Ford's assembly line led to numerous motor vehicles and as they became more numerous we needed a Motor Vehicle Department

The Federal Aviation Administration was needed as air travel became more common.

It seems like big business and big government go hand in hand. All the above agencies were needed to facilitate business.

And last but not least we have the Affordable Care Act which will eventually lead to a single payer system. But that may require a lot of explanation.
Nothing here seems logical at all. You need to explain in more detail. The way I see it big business has been taxed heavy to create big govt. Look into the waste big govt. spends every year on useless things.
