The U.S. Secret Service was created to battle counterfeiting five days after Robert E. Lee's surrender marked the end of the U.S. Civil War. One third of all currency in circulation at that time is believed to have been counterfeit. (Considering that the role for which the Secret Service is most famous today is that of protecting the President, it is ironic that Abraham Lincoln created the Secret Service on the day he was shot.)
Why do civil service employees eventually have a great amount of influence?
You will have to be more specific. I live in an area where government is the main employer and there are thousands of civil service employees in our area. Half of the people that I know personally are civil servants. Out of the thousands of civil servants, you can count on your fingers the number that have any great power. The governor, the legislature, the mayors and city councils are not civil service. They are the political end of public service and subject to election to office (or the patronage of an elected official). Civil service is the labor part of government employment.
