Once the cod were overfished, government agencies redefined "cod" as the northern whitefish (a bland tasting fish that isn't even close.) When rigid budget rules were in place that limited government spending except for emergencies, the Bush administration redefined funding the Veterans Administration - a cabinet-level department that had been around since the Reagan administration - as an "emergency" that had only recently come up.

Orwellian language by government to get what they want has been with us for some time. Do Not Listen To Them. Their pronouncements are neither "safe" nor "effective."
