Kicking the can down the road
What politicians do to our National debt. Instead of resolving it, they refuse to address it and instead borrow more.
The Republicans and Democrats both borrowed a ton of money and put the government further in debt. This is what we call kicking the can down the road. Guess our children's children will be paying this one off.

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
