Detroitification

Share definition Flag
n.

Detroitification refers to the destruction of a city, state or nation through draining money from hardworking individuals to pay for the cushy compensation and retirement of unproductive public "servants." When paired with corruption, Detroitification can skeletonize a city in just a few years.

The term "Detroitification" was coined by Michigan policy analyst Jack McHugh in 2007.
Gentrification is less of a problem in the U.S. than Detroitification.

After the Detroitification of my hometown, Bosnia looks appealing in comparison.

Detroitivore

Share definition Flag
The term assigned to Democrat politicians who are elected to their positions based on promises of Utopian outcomes for the electorate. Once in power, they ramp up welfare and cause the electorate to become increasingly dependant on the state, thus sustaining the grip the Democrats have on their liberties and social mobility.

No city under long term control by Detroitivores ever resembles the paradise that was promised and often ends up crime riddled because of widespread unemployment and state dependence (this is now often blamed on anything but the parasitic nature of Detroitivores).

The safety net of welfare that was promised has been allowed to become a hammock that is increasingly hard to get up from.

All social problems in these states are blamed on Republicans, despite the fact the Republicans haven't held power in them for decades.

See cities such as:
St. Louis, Jackson, Detroit, New Orleans, Baltimore, Memphis, Cleveland, Baton Rouge, Kansas City and Shreveport.

And then compare them to crime rate statistics whilst paying attention to the presiding political party in those same cities.
Bradley: "Hey man, did you see, the number of unemployed keeps going up despite the mayor's electoral promises to increase taxes 700% to reduce that number?"
Savannah: "That sucks. It must be hard to live in a city run by Detroitivores"
Bradley: "Detroitivores?"

Savannah: "Yep, parasitic beings in human skin whose policies harm the electorate while simultaneously using them to sustain their own power."
