Just testing RG!

But seriously, with all the PC stuff flying around and all the annoying buzzwords, thought I'd start a list if terms that nobody really likes. Add to it and keep it fun and light hearted.

1. Synergy

 
Affordable _ _ _ _ _ _ _

"Affordable" healthcare

"Affordable" housing

"Affordable" jobs programs

Code word for "Hi, we're the Government, and we"re about to mess things up really really bad, and you have to pay for it"

 
purchase insurance... in my mind, a purchase involves a one time payment for a specific item. Obtaining insurance is something that, as I see it, is possible, paying for insurance is possible, but purchasing insurance is impossible, because you are not making a one time payment nor are you buying an item. You are making many monthly premium payments, deductible payments, and copays for a service (not an item) that pays the other portion of the bill.
