在大多数立法机构中，对正确使用的一丝不苟被认为是精英主义。例如，“政府”一词通常发音为“gummint”；官僚主义就是“官僚主义”；财政政策是“有形的”，人们采取的行动不是暂停规则，而是“暂停”。
(In most legislatures, punctilious attention to correct usage is considered elitist. The word 'government,' for example, is normally pronounced 'gummint'; bureaucracy is 'bureaucacy'; fiscal comes out 'physical,' and one moves not to suspend the rules, but to 'suppend.')
