Random refereeing: how uncertainty hinders economic growth (with reference to lucky puppies, pepper...and salt, Lawrence Summers and Thomas Jefferson)

Remarks before the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, San Antonio, Texas, July 29, 2010 ; "In whatever realm and whatever form, excessive uncertainty is the enemy of economic growth. As Ben Bernanke wrote in 1980, the 'resolution of uncertainty' can lead to '[a business] investment boom.' It follows, then, that if and as regulators and legislators provide more clarity, a major roadblock to economic growth will be removed."
