Mises Wire

Now that we've eliminated real crime...

Now that we've eliminated real crime...
I think I need one of these for the wall next to my desk. And if you need any proof that this pithy little observation is really true, check out this meeting of the states' attorneys general. That's right, boys and girls, only the feds can save us from the evil that is price gouging. I wonder if only an economic distortion of this type on a nationwide scale will have the power to convince people that price gouging laws don't work?

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.
