It Is Only Your Money After We Get Our Cut First

Entrepreneur Charged With Tax Evasion:

WASHINGTON - Telecommunications entrepreneur Walter Anderson was arrested and charged with evading $200 million in federal and local taxes in what the government said was the largest criminal tax case ever against an individual in the United States. [...]
“He was living the high life,” said the Internal Revenue Service commissioner, Mark Everson. “Because of his dishonest dealings, Mr. Anderson’s lavish life style was subsidized by honest, hardworking Americans.”

The report does not detail how Mr. Anderson fleeced money from these “honest, hardworking Americans” - but then again, he must have if, he didn’t pay his fair share.

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.
