austerity program 

(ECONOMICS) when a government has to restructure spending by massively cutting social programs, development programs, and subsidies on basic necessities. Often accompanied by taxes increases, especially on lower incomes (since the poor cannot escape tax hikes).

Usually we use the term "austerity program" when the government in question has to backtrack on its ideological commitments. An example of this is France, after June 1982. The Socialist government of Mitterrand had just implemented a raft of major new social welfare programs, and was promptly forced to cut everything back when the deficit ballooned.

austerity chic 

The trend of shunning ostentatious displays of wealth in favour of frugal spending which you will brag about to all your friends whether you are affected by the recession or not

dirty Austinite

wannabe hippies that have not grow up to be normally functioning adults in Austin society; they are characterized by their radical political and social belief systems including saving endangered species such as whales by campaigning on the Drag and Congress Avenue and being animal rights activists by being vegan; they have filthy dreadlocks, smell worse than the urine of a dehydrated alcoholic, don't shave (i.e. women don't shave their legs or underarms), have most of their exposed body covered in tattoos, extremely large piercings and normally live in clans (aka coops)

I was upset that the dirty Austinite did not wash his hands when he prepared my meal at Thundercloud Subs in order to save the environment by not using water.
