The NYT has unearthed a document that seems to date back to 2008 of which a new edition is in the works, and this new edition permits the FBI to do damn thing it wants to do, such as rummage through your trash, monitor communications, break into databases, and be the all-round agency of total domestic surveillance.

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.
