Mises Wire

Audio: Tom Woods and Ryan McMaken on Policing and Abolishing the FBI

Last week, Tom Woods and I spoke on the Tom Woods show about the FBI, its origins, and its crimes. We also took a look at some issues surrounding policing and why modern law enforcement is made more dangerous and more difficult by the state’s drive to manage and control every aspect of daily life. 

We covered several articles from my recent three-part series on policing, found here, and on my article “Abolish the FBI.”

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.
