There was a huge expansion of government under FDR, but there was also the little matter of WWII and the great depression to take care of.  We did get something in return for the government expansion at that time:  We won the war, helped to rebuild Europe and Japan, ended the depression, and built the interstate highway system.  The current administration more closely resembles that of LBJ, in which the government expanded exponentially, but with little real accomplishment.
