Daniella Bassi tells the remarkable story of the Arctic fur trade as a real-world case study in stateless order. In early 20th-century northern Canada, Inuit and European traders conducted peaceful, prosperous exchange, without government law or enforcement, guided instead by mutual respect, property rights, and natural law.Recorded at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, on July 26, 2025.Mises University is the world's leading instructional program in the Austrian School of economics, and is the essential training ground for economists who are looking beyond the mainstream.

For years, Republicans slammed Democrats for using federal power to support clean energy, arguing the government shouldn't be in the business of picking winners and losers in the energy space.

POLITICO's Zack Colman breaks down the GOP's energy flip and what it means for America's future. Plus, House appropriators released a committee report Monday raising issues with policies at EPA and the Interior Department and detailing how they want the $38 billion package spent in fiscal 2026.

In today's deep dive, Tom Bilyeu tackles one of the hottest—and most misunderstood—topics in urban life: rent control. As rents skyrocket in cities like New York and San Francisco, and an entire generation struggles under crushing debt and soaring housing costs, the call for rent control has become louder than ever. But Tom asks the hard question: does rent control actually make rents more affordable, or does it trigger a downward spiral of housing shortages, urban decay, and economic stagnation? Drawing lessons from around the world and diving into the history of rent control policies in cities like New York, Stockholm, Berlin, and San Francisco, Tom exposes the hidden costs and unintended consequences of top-down economic interventions. He argues that while rent control might sound like a lifeline for struggling renters, it often backfires—making things even worse by stifling new construction, deteriorating housing stock, and trapping communities in economic hardship. Through compelling stories and insightful analysis, Tom explores why these policies persist, the powerful forces—like NIMBYism and regulatory capture—keeping housing scarce, and how cities like Houston and Tokyo buck the trend with market-driven solutions. Packed with examples, practical takeaways, and a passionate call for economic freedom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to understand the real roots of the housing crisis—and what can actually be done to fix it.

In this fiery and thought-provoking commentary, he draws a parallel between our economic system and the undead—slow-moving, artificially sustained, and dangerously contagious. From government bailouts to artificially low interest rates, Markowski argues that we've bred an economy where failure is no longer allowed and risk is masked by subsidies and intervention. The result? Zombie companies, weakened competition, and a generation losing faith in capitalism itself. If America wants to be the most dynamic economy in the world again, it needs one thing: a reckoning. A purge. A return to real capitalism—no painkillers, no crutches, just economic survival of the fittest. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com

In this episode of Healthcare Americana, host Christopher Habig talks with Dr. Tom DiLorenzo, President of the Mises Institute, about how Austrian economics can help fix America's broken healthcare system. They explore how government bureaucracy, inflation, cronyism, and rent-seeking drive up costs and reduce quality, while free market principles like competition and innovation offer a path to reform. Dr. DiLorenzo highlights the role of local initiatives, economic education, and grassroots efforts in creating meaningful healthcare change and emphasizes the need to treat healthcare as a market, not a government-run service.More on Freedom Healthworks & FreedomDoc HealthSubscribe at https://healthcareamericana.com/More on Dr. Tom DiLorenzo & Mises InstituteFollow Healthcare Americana: Instagram & LinkedIN
