Bush Wants More Jailed Citizens in Russia and China

Bush Wants More Jailed Citizens in Russia and China
"Intellectual Property" is the sticking point in US support for Russia to join the World Trade Organization. Meanwhile, this headline is an attention grabber: "Bush Wants China to Send Copyright Violators to Jail." The irony is ghastly: strengthen your state and jail your entrepreneurs or we won't trade.

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.
