My kind of skepticism, from a reader:

Havenโ€™t we figured out that โ€œThe New Economyโ€ is what anyone says when they want to explain why their pet theory is inconsistent with the evidence? โ€œThis isnโ€™t a bubble, itโ€™s The New Economy.โ€ (things are better than they look) โ€œThis isnโ€™t real economic growth, itโ€™s a New Economy.โ€ (things are worse than they look)
