During WWII the people were intimately part of the National Security effort. Remember "Rosie the Riveter" and everybody employed in the war production effort? Everyone had a stake in keeping America secure. Now, all the "Research" and "National Security" seems to be for the benefit of the researchers, the institutions, the politicians and the donor class...but not "The People".
