Forget Heisenberg's "Uncertainty Principle" . . .

Wed. May 30, 2012:




Just one required reading today, from Bloomberg News editors, led by Matthew Winkler [above, with bow-tie skewed to his right].

Werner Heisenberg, the World War II-era German physicist, was probably most famous for his "Uncertainty Principle" -- if not Neils Bohr's wartime meeting with him.
But, in 2012 politics, Republicans have a more pertinent "Uncertainty Principle":  Federal regulations cause "uncertainty," which spooks businesses, which prevents economic growth & private-sector jobs.
Is this Uncertainty Principle valid, or not?
