Social Deprivation - a political and/or economic policy that seeks to enrich the wealthiest members of a society by minimizing the upkeep of the public commons and social institutions - especially those providing services and regulation related to health, impoverishment and education.
As a result of the Governor's policy of Social Deprivation, tax revenue that should have gone to road and bridge repair was instead given to the wealthiest citizens of the state in the form of a millionaire tax break.
