Mark ThorntonHOST
Hello and welcome to another episode of the Minor Issues Podcast.
Mark ThorntonHOST
I'm Mark Thornton at the Mises Institute.
Mark ThorntonHOST
Well, there is an old and familiar saying about difficult personal and social situations.
Mark ThorntonHOST
When a weak-willed or broken personality is faced with a difficult or dire situation, the individual simply ignores the problem and pretends to be confident and cheerful about what is to come.

Mario InneccoSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Well, I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr.
Mario InneccoSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Mark Thornton today, a special guest for me.
Mario InneccoSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
He's a senior fellow at the Mises Institute, and I owe a lot to the Mises Institute for my knowledge of economics.
Mario InneccoSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I've been following the Austrian School of Economics for over 25 years.
Jared Der-YeghiayanGUEST
And we just kept on hitting roadblock after roadblock after roadblock.
Jared Der-YeghiayanGUEST
I was trying to even match up language of Dread Pirate Roberts, not just from that English professor, but match it up to another website called, I think it was Mises or Mises.org.
Jared Der-YeghiayanGUEST
It was one of the libertarian websites that Dread Pirate Roberts was using to say, read these letters and read these things.
Jared Der-YeghiayanGUEST
Interesting.

In a recent Mises article, Tho Bishop declared that the institution of college sports is currently under the grip of anarcho-tyranny, which he defined as the state-driven phenomenon of criminalizing the enforcement of basic civic norms while increasingly restricting the liberties of law-abiding citizens.
Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
The latest outrage comes from Louisiana State University, in which its enfant, terrible football coach Lane Kiffin, has done what he always has done, push the boundaries of the rules of college athletics well beyond where they should be.
Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
Presidents of the Southeastern Conference are meeting today to discuss the future of LSU in the SEC, with expelling the university from the league being one of the options on the table, although that happening is highly unlikely.

Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
All this chaos has led to members of Congress introducing legislation, the Protect College Sports Act of 2026, with retired Alabama football coach Nick Saban openly endorsing it.
Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
Among other things, the bill establishes requirements for name, image, or likeness agreements for college student-athletes and provides a limited antitrust exemption for schools and conferences to pool and sell certain college sports media rights.
Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
As Ludwig von Mises noted, when government intervenes in the economy, it creates new sets of problems that invite even more intervention.
Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
In the case of college sports, the original intervention of antitrust law has created results that now are said to require congressional intervention to stop the damage.
Karr InghamGUEST
And the guy I'm most excited to see is a guy most people won't have heard of.
Karr InghamGUEST
And that's an economist named Tom Woods, who's a great libertarian Mises Institute guy.
Karr InghamGUEST
So you can look all of them up.
Karr InghamGUEST
But anyway...
Karr InghamGUEST
And the guy I'm most excited to see is a guy most people won't have heard of.
Karr InghamGUEST
And that's a. That's an economist named Tom Woods, who's a great libertarian Mises Institute guy.
Karr InghamGUEST
So you can look all of them up.
Karr InghamGUEST
But anyway, this thing is tonight and I'm really excited to get to go do that.
Ryan McMakenNARRATOR
On the other hand, those who become elites through the initiation of violence and through the looting of others have always been frauds and impostors.

Joe ThomasHOST
Um, so, you know, the more the government messes around in the economy, the worse it's just predictably going to get.
AndyAUDIENCE
Well, the anti-war, anti-state message is still being, like, spread by the Mises Institute.
Joe ThomasHOST
Yeah.
Joe ThomasHOST
Uh, right.
Jeff LeskovarGUEST
He's going to really like this, I think.
Jeff LeskovarGUEST
And then I had like Joe Salerno, who's one of the guys of the Mises Institute.
Jeff LeskovarGUEST
But, you know, like I would have drinks with the guy afterwards, and it just didn't seem like it resonated with him like it did with you and with Tom Woods.
Jeff LeskovarGUEST
And I'm thinking...
AaronGUEST
All right.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
I think of, um, I know that Rothbard talked about this, but I think Miese- he got it from Mises where, where, um, he talked about how the intellectuals in society always have to go to the state, have to get a job with the state because they h- they have no, there's no, they have no, um, worth in the free market.
AaronGUEST
Yeah, absolutely.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
I mean, what is...
Pete QuiñonesHOST
And, but they're also economists.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
And when you, uh, historically, I mean, even...
Pete QuiñonesHOST
And, and I'm not saying anything bad about Mises, but you know, Mises worked for the Austrian government.
AaronGUEST
Oh, yeah.
ScottHOST
They're different in a really interesting way.
ScottHOST
And, uh, however, he had emailed me about asking me if I was going to, and I said, you know what, I really should follow it up in a reasonably short order after doing that King Philip episode, because the comparison is comparison is, is really fruitful, I think, and contrast, um, And yeah, so I'm here to join you today wearing my lucky Mises.org t-shirt, which I wear whenever I am doing a story, not whenever I'm doing a solo episode, but I feel like it makes me do better.
ScottHOST
and i know it looks like shit i think i said this all the same same thing last time i wore it but at any rate uh this week we're talking about the powhatan wars uh with jamestown um and uh the book that i read this week is called a brave and cunning chief a prince braining i was gonna say print chief a brave and cunning prince by uh what is this guy's name james horn And it is very libtarded.
ScottHOST
However, I think it gave me a interesting way to examine this topic because I could have done a straightforward Jamestown history.
