 There are a lot of places on this earth that will generically cheer on the free market and that's wonderful But how many of them are going to stand up to the entire regime? To its intellectuals to its media when the chips are down and the war propaganda is flying well I'll tell you the answer to that is the number is vanishingly small But right here we are celebrating 30 years of the Mises Institute Which is among that very small number and in recent years we in the Institute have made huge strides We've got Austrian scholars being hired on economics faculties now to to a degree We couldn't have dreamed possible even 10 years ago It's not career suicide to be an Austrian economist and these young bright Austrians absolutely amaze me It's possible to be anti-war and free market now In fact, this almost seems like what it should be the logical position to take We are seeing a revival of interest in Mises and Rothbard That none of us could have expected Well Mises.org slash 30 is where the 30-year promotion is taking place because this is No time for us to let up. We've got to keep pushing forward We're actually having victories that Rothbard didn't live to see Mises didn't live to see Ron Paul's a lucky man. He's lived to see his own vindication But we owe it to them to those people who struggled and fought and fought and Didn't see anything any return for what they did Now we're starting to see it now we with your help have to press on with more determination than ever Thanks for supporting the Mises Institute
