    We are all bureaucrats these days, or shortly will be, whether we work for government directly or work in the private sector and get our government money through grants, contracts, or subsidies. And even if we belong to that shrinking part of the private sector that remains really private, we’ll be for certain filling out government forms, doing business in a bureaucratic universe. This bureau¬ cratization of the world has created a new language, one that we might call “The Official Style.” It has a dozen other “ese” names —Federalese, Bureaucratese, Sociologese, Educationese —depending on what depart¬ ment of the Great Conglomerate we happen to find ourselves in, but it is basically the same language wherever it occurs. Built on the same central imbalance, the atrophy of verbs and the dominance of nouns, it testifies everywhere to the same bureaucratic triumph of stasis over action.
