Recipe for a Sunday editorial cartoon:
- take one exceedingly minor scandal, in this case, the revelation that some New Jersey state employees have a uniform allowance even though they wear normal office clothes
- connect to some outdated and extremely cranky characterization of people younger than the cartoonist -- extra points if there's a whiff of class or race condescension
- whip up quickly in order to make a Saturday-afternoon tee time.

Please remember that the purpose of Editorial Explanations is to explain and to expand knowledge, rather than to engage in any partisan bickering. All cartoonists are completely correct, in their own worlds.
