Greenspan’s Empty Talk

To help mark the passing of former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, we run this 2001 piece from Dr. Joseph Salerno, who understood the Greenspan fraud long before “The Maestro” tanked the US economy by setting off the Housing Bubble.

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.
