Detroitification

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.

Detroitivore

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."

Detroitist

A person whose love for Detroit rises to the level of an idealogical worldview, usually in stark contrast to objective reality.

Detroitist is adapted from the Andrew Sullivan-coined term Chrisitianist - a Christian whose faith become their political idealogy. Christianist was derived from the term Islamist used to describe terrorists who attempt to defend their actions with Islamic scripture.
Joe is a Detroitist because, despite an indicted Mayor, a bankrupt school system, and double digit unemployment, he believes Detroit is a healthy, functional city. He cites the 100 downtown bars and restaurants as proof of the city's success.

Detroiterized

A car after receiving custom work such as rust, unattached bumpers and fenders, broken windows covered with plastic bags, missing muffler, no side-view mirrors, huge chrome rims, bumpin' system, looks like tints are on the windows but it's really full of sheboons and bucks, hood held down by duct-tape, out headlights and tail lights, seats fully extended back, and stripped of all paint.

This cars can always be found in Detroit, where the population of the city has all had their car Detroiterized.
Jamie: Check out that car man. The thing is a piece of shit on wheels, and nice wheels too.
