Inequanomics noun

The misguided belief that a few rich people can match the spending power of 100s of millions of consumers. An example would be a comparison between the daily spending of the 400 richest people in America and the 150 million people this elite group's wealth equals: For every meal, tank of gas, car, home, clothing purchase, there is no way in which these 400 individuals could ever spend as much as 150 million people. Even if each of these 400 wealthy people bought the most expensive of any of the items mentioned above and supported families consisting of 100 members each, their spending would still only amount to 40,000 (thousand) people versus that of 150,000,000 (150 million) people.

Liberty Slave noun

An individual incarcerated and made to do free labor in a country where Life, Liberty and The Pursuit of Happiness are usurped by laws written "By, For and Of the Private Prison Corporations."
