Wal-Mart Based Economy

Town or city that has lost a large economic base; such as a mill or military site. And the Wal-Mart Supercenter seems to become the hub of all economic activity. Everyone Shops there, works there, eats there, has babies there, etc.
After Vandeliegh industries moved out of town, they've had a Wal-Mart based economy over in Oniontown.

circle jerk economy 

An economy based on a circular exchange of money where finished goods are consumed and nothing of value is produced.
I'll be taking my half hour lunch break. I have to take the money I made from selling hamburgers to the people working at Walmart and go buy some junk from Walmart. Man, we live in such a circle jerk economy nowadays.
