Losing Wall Street

Losing Wall Street

Nicole Gelinas in the New York Post: “NewYork politicians spent the spring devising a new way to squeeze more blood from Wall Street, in the form of a ‘temporary’ tax surcharge on well-compensated workers. But you can’t tax a ghost. What if Wall Street and its highly paid executives simply disappear?”

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.
