David Stockman on The National Security Complex: Contemporary Statism on Steroids

Presented at the 2024 Human Action Conference on Friday, 17 May 2024, at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama.

“The empire can and should be dismantled. 1949 was a crucial mistake – a pivot point that has led to this massive fiscal and political crisis that we have in America today. This is pretty evident to a lot of us, but it was evident to Mises in 1949, and I think we should have followed his advice.”
