Government and its Computers

Government and its Computers

It seems that the FBI can’t get its $170 million computer system to work right. So of course it will spend $2 million to evaluate the problems. While this evaluation takes place, “the bulk of the internal reports and documents produced at the F.B.I. must still be printed, signed and scanned by hand into computer format each day.”

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. 

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
