Brad DeLong's Diagnosis

Brad DeLong has mastered the technique of the petty, ad hominem attack.

His latest attack is on Mario Rizzo, whom I don't know, but wish I did (in contrast to Brad DeLong).

At any rate, as long as Brad is practicing pop/shlock psychology, there's another diagnosis I think he should look at. The part I think applies the most to Brad is this.

Treatment for this disorder is very rarely sought. There is a limited amount of insight into the symptoms, and the negative consequences are often blamed on society. In this sense, treatment options are limited. Some research has found long term insight oriented therapy to be effective, but getting the individual to commit to this treatment is a major obstacle.

Good luck with that, Brad.
