Join Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, Jeff Deist, William Boyes, Charles Goyette and others in Phoenix, Arizona to discuss What Must Be Done.

We are told relentlessly by the mainstream media that politics is the most important thing in the world. We must constantly decide which politicians to support, which government programs to debate, and how to vote. In fact, real change is brought to society not through participation in the regime's tightly-controlled political games, but through radical decentralization, and the building up of non-state institutions such as families and markets. One of the state's greatest triumphs in the 20th century was the politicization of everything from education to employment to marriage.

To undo this, we must seek to de-politicize our culture, and we do this not through elections and political pageantry, but by building up our businesses and communities where our actions make a real difference, where participation is truly voluntary, and where real wealth can be built and preserved. 

The Mises Circle will meet at the Hilton Phoenix Airport on Saturday, November 7 to examine what must be done, and what can be done now to build a world where states are weak and society is strong.

Parking is free at the Hilton. For accommodations call the Hilton at 480-894-1600 before October 16 and mention the Mises Institute for a special rate of $89 per night plus tax. Complimentary 24-hour shuttle from the airport is available by calling 480-894-1600 after your claim your luggage.

Attire is business-casual. The lunch buffet will include gluten-free and vegetarian options.
