The State of the US Economy

11/15/2014 Mark Thornton

Interviewed by Emil Franzi and Bruce Ash on AM 1030 KVOI in Tuscon, Mark Thornton offers an Austrian perspective on several issues such as Obamacare, the state of the US economy and the dollar, government success in innovation (or lack there of), and the ruling class.

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.
