      In 2015, I went on a bender and downloaded every Rothbard audio file from Mises.org so it's great to get "new" content for my long drives to work.

      @@pablocalderon648 Well firstly he was ostracised from the Viennese jewish community because he was not a socialist (nor a businessman). Then he never got a payed university tenure "just" a private docenture at the university of Vienna. Then as the nazis invaded he could only escape Austria in a nick of time, his house and his assets were seazed, and I believe some of his relatives were killed. Then through switzerland went to the US where he never got the distinction he deserved, had to teach at a trade school and subsist off of friendly donations in simple circumstances. Hayek reports that he was treated pretty badly all through his life and as a result was for a long time a quite embittered man.

    Dairy district wants special favors for dairy. Coal district wants special favors for coal. They agree then that there should be special favors for coal and dairy. By the time ALL interests are represented, NO ONE'S interests are represented. You just have a bigger, more intrusive government, high taxes, and, since they discovered fiat currency, CRIPPLING DEBT. Everyone SHOULD operate in their own self-interest, but NOT with special advantage from government.

      @Karl Marx I forgot the details but the main story is that Mises success fully conveyed one of Austrian minister not to turn into Marxism country. I don’t know what government you are pointing at. I searched your word Austro fascism but it tells fatherland front which started from 1933. But wiki says “In 1934, Mises left Austria for Geneva, Switzerland, where he was a professor at the Graduate Institute of International Studies until 1940.”

      Ludwig Von Mises was a card-carrying member of the "Fatherland Front" fascist party. We still have his membership number of both the party & the fascist social club
      "On 1 March 1934, at the Austrian Chamber of Commerce where [Von Mises] worked as a business sector lobbyist, Mises became member 282632 of the Patriotic Front and member number 406183 of Werk Neues Leben the official Fascist social club (Hülsmann 2007, 677, n149)."
      Mises' fascist party membership cards can still be seen in his archives in Pennsylvania
      Mises was pro-fascism & anti-communism. That should clue you in right there
      This is what Ludwig Von Mises wrote about fascism in 1927:
      "It cannot be denied that Fascism and similar movements aiming at the establishment of dictatorships are full of the best intentions and that their intervention has, for the moment, saved European civilization."
