A word to describe something that is generally cheap or poor. Derived from the word "Government", which is notorious for giving handouts to poorer folks for things such as food, housing, healthcare, etc. Shortened to "Gubment" due to the way both the black and the back country redneck community pronounce the word "Government". Generally used to describe items used by very low class people.
Example 1:
Person 1: *Pulls out cracked 7" Acer Laptop*
Person 2: Put that gubment laptop away, YOU BROKE.
Person 1: I don't care *continues to watch videos at 10 fps*
Example 2:
Mom and Daughter strolling through store
Daughter: Momma can we get some Kraft Mac and Cheese?
Mom: Nah quit lookin were gonna get the great value.
Daughter: You won't catch me eating that gubment food...

When people have paychecks coming from the federal government and are biased towards passing laws that benefit themselves and their families they are riding the gubment gravy train.
When massive numbers of people living in DC have their best interest in passing laws for themselves while forgetting about the rest of the nation. They would be riding the gubment gravy train.
