The Real Data Scandal

The Real Data Scandal

Civil libertarians: a wholly unaccountable government agency records 100% of your electronic communications.

Americans: *yawn*

Media: a private firm, accountable to its board, shareholders, and customers, has been sharing some information you gave it.

Americans: *meltdown*

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.
