“The market economy is the only system that permits each man to attain his goals in the way he thinks best.”
—Ludwig von Mises
In American politics, the only thing everyone seems to agree on is that our government isn’t working. Our politicians have never been dumber and more self-absorbed. The left has never been more tyrannical; the right has never been more disinterested in the virtues of capitalism and free markets.
Where, then, does the hope lie for America?
The answer is entrepreneurship. Despite the political chaos of the past decade, entrepreneurs have achieved significant victories against the state and are providing real solutions for the rest of us. Politicians don’t build prosperity. Entrepreneurs do.
Join the Mises Institute in Oklahoma City as we are joined by some of America’s greatest heroes who are overcoming our rigged, broken system.
Dr. Keith Smith is the founder of the Oklahoma Surgery Center and the Free Market Medical Association, undermining the disastrous insurance cartel that Obamacare further empowered. He has been a national leader in the direct-primary care model, which is revolutionizing American healthcare by removing the state and empowering both physicians and patients.
Caitlin Long is one of the leading voices in Bitcoin and the founder of Custodia Bank. After leaving Wall Street, she has pursued market-driven solutions to the state’s corruption of money and banking, leading her to battle both the Federal Reserve and the Biden Administration in her mission to create a radical new financial institution that actually serves its customers, not the political class.
These two titans in their industry will be joined by Mises Institute Executive Editor Ryan McMaken, and two of our Senior Fellows: Oklahoma State University entrepreneurship professor Per Bylund and Wofford College economics professor Timothy Terrell, for an event dedicated to solutions over politics.
