Mises Wire

Teller of truth during the game of pretend

The Economist reports that a man wearing a Mises.org bracelet confronted Rick Perry at a campaign stop. He asked how he considers himself a conservative given that “state debt has nearly tripled and spending has increased by two thirds” under his leadership. Perry dismissed this question entirely.

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.
