Trickle Down Town

Any type of make-shift community comprised of tents or shanties and populated by those that have been evicted, foreclosed on and/or forced into homelessness due to the down turn of the economy caused by the policies started in the Reagan administration and carried on by both Bush administrations.

The tent city populated by the recent homeless in CA is an example of a Trickle Down Town.

Trickle Down Ass

When you're hanging out with a friend who is better looking then you are, and all the girls go for him, the girls that he doesn't want to hook up with trickle down to you and your less attractive buddies. Derived from the term trickle down economics.

Dumbass Buddy: I hate going out with Cory, all the chicks go after him!

Smart Buddy: Dude, just wait for it.

Dumbass Buddy: Wait for what?

Smart Buddy: The trickle down ass. He can't fuck all these girls, and when they realize that, they'll all trickle down to us.

trickle-down economics

Since the upper classes of any society (in particular the males in the upper classes) tend to masturbate more than the proletariat, it's thought their semen and vaginal discharge can help fertilize those in the poorer reaches of said society - this is trickle-down economics. Giving bankers tax breaks will free up more of their time for masturbation, allowing for more ejaculate, and more enrichment of the lower classes. Since rich persons tend on average to produce less semen and vaginal fluid, the word 'trickle' rather than 'gush' or 'explode' is used.

Trickle Down Mathematics

A cute sounding phrase, which is 99.99% bullshit, that is used to justify the high royalties demanded by half-baked math authors in academia, or the high fees charged by most overrated textbook math consultants or general editors (who are notorious in giving cosmetic feedback to a manuscript).

Educational publishers in Singapore reluctantly give in to trickle down mathematics, hoping to increase the odds of their approved textbooks to be adopted by more local schools, by displaying as many PhDs on their book covers.
