Lew Rockwell on what the Mises Institute hopes to accomplish

I am often asked what the Mises Institute hopes to accomplish.  Both Mises and Rothbard were undoubtedly asked about their own hopes.  I think their answer would have been very simple: they hoped to write what is true and do what is right, and to do it with enthusiasm and vigor.  If we do nothing else, that is enough.  And yet, it is everything.

The difficult times in which we live are a reminder that our mission is far from complete.  The forces of statism are always waiting for an opportunity to rob us of the blessings of prosperity and liberty, of civilivation itself.

Mises believed that the best way to defeat the socialists was to say what is true.  Against the idea of liberty, he said, the fiercest sword of the despot is finally powerless.
