[edit] Neologism Concern

The article was prodded earlier today as a possible neologism. It appears to be a neologism that has gained traction. The term is being used in the United States in public plicy discourse and Census Bureau reporting. I quickly saw examples from the Federal Goverment and at least five states. Several of the ones I looked at (dating back to 1997) described it as a recently coined turn. (The phenomenon is older than the U.S.) But I haven't found one yet that says who coined it or when.

Note: as the article is currently very short, there is no real need of section headers (in my opinion). I also am unsure as to which stub category to put this in, so I'm just going to give it a generic "stub" tag and hope someone helps it out, as I'm not an expert on the topic. --Hobbularmodule 17:14, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
