Mark Thornton South Carolina Mises Circle 2026
Mark Thornton

Dr. Mark Thornton argues that America’s schools and universities have spent 150 years quietly instilling a collectivist ideology, and that the real problem isn’t declining test scores but a progressive worldview baked in from kindergarten up. Drawing on Bastiat, Mises, and South Carolina history, he shows how to fight it from the bottom up.

Recorded in Greenville, South Carolina, on September 12, 2026.
