Looking at Entrepreneurship From a Theoretical Perspective

01/08/2014 Mises Daily Steve Mariotti

Government officials talk about more entrepreneurship, but they pick particular firms, industries, or technologies, and give them subsidies and benefits. What entrepreneurs need is secure property rights, the rule of law, and sound money. The best government can do for entrepreneurs is get out of their way.

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.
