Well, I guess if you've got a formula that works, you might as well go
with it. What did Spy magazine used to call it, Script-O-Matic? A
little New Deal nostalgia here, a little populist outrage there, some
nationalist cant about "our" economy," all lined with a
high-testosterone writing style, and boom--you've got yourself an
article.
