Cainunism (keyn - yuh - niz - uhm) – noun

1. A theory or system of economic organization based on a wildly optimistic regard for the fiscal discipline of Congress and the President.

2. The intentional use by politicians of resonant slogans which obfuscate and distract some voters from the otherwise conspicuous absence of thoughtful, realistic or realizable fiscal or monetary plans and policies.
