Reply #43: I agree with two of yours: 'political correctness' and 'nanny state'

They have genuine meanings, but are too often both used to justify the right to ride roughshod over people.

I also get irritated by the *excessive* use of 'Big Pharma'. I realize that Big Pharma exists, and does some bad things, but it annoys me when *all* modern medicine (to which I owe my life!) is dismissed as nothing but a plot by 'Big Pharma'.

And the use of 'Nazi' for anyone who seems slightly too bossy or interfering. I don't mind so much people calling Bush et al 'Nazis' though I think it's over-the-top; but it really trivalizes the term when it starts being used in such phrases as 'health Nazi', 'smoking Nazi', 'spelling Nazi', 'feminazi', etc.
