Euronomics 

In North America, Euronomics is the acquistion of various Japanese or Korean entry-model cars. Once obtained, the owner, usually of Italian or other sub-ethnic decent, will proceed to spend 90% of their wealth on maximizing the white trash appeal of the vehicle. Grossly over priced rims, often shiny with spinning emblems, exhaust tips, and other local big box items are highly sought. Once deemed road worthy by the individual, they then proceed to search for a suitable mate, often of the same socioeconomic class.

Mario, a strict believer in Euronomics and also a 10th generation Italian immigrant, spent his life savings on a 1991 Honda Civic, only to find implanting $20,000 North American dollars had increased the car's value by $400.00 dollars, or a large rock of crack cocaine.

voodoo economics 

Ronald Alzheimer Reagan's "supply-side economics"

The only recorded instance of a true statement made by a member of the Bush dynasty was in 1980, when George H.W. Bush attacked Reagan's snake-oil economic disaster in the making by calling it "voodoo economics." He later ate those words when he became vice-president, began kissing up to reactionaries, and discovered how lucrative deregulation of the S&L's was to embezzlers like his sons Neil and Jeb.

SitiBanc: Okay so mark to market - I haven't heard that accounting terms since Key Lay came in asking for 1 billion dollars...

Me to SitiBanc: Yes, I am familiar with Enronomics.

Tinkle Down Economics 

1) System of record low taxes for the wealthiest and low, stagnant wages for the working poor leading the poor and middle class families and individuals to struggle make ends meet.

2) The preferred conservative economic system which essentially tell the the poor and middle class "piss on you!".

Former president Ronald Reagan and other conservatives praise their system of Trickle Down Economics, but what they really mean is "Tinkle Down Economics" - as in Piss On You poor and middle class people.

helicopter economics 

When the monetary authorities put a seemingly unlimited amount of money into the financial system in order to stimulate the economy; as if they were flying around in helicopters and dropping money from the sky. This usually results in substantial inflation and sometimes hyperinflation.

The Federal Reserve's excessive easy money policy is helicopter economics at its worst.
