     @lain @Newman You're joking about it, but this is official gov't terminology.

     @djsumdog @lain @Newman I'm not going to comment one way or another on this specific thing or the policies associated with it.
     
     I'm just going to say, this is what you get when you succeed in getting government support behind your favorite remedy for your pet social issue. You get glossaries on government websites, you get action plans carried out by state institutions and you get elected and unelected government talking heads taking your technical terms and battle cries to market for cheap rhetoric and political horsetrading. You convert a grassroots political movement into a bureaucratic steam train running on rails you didn't build and won't be able to redirect.
     
     Be careful what you wish for.
