I Resign From the Mont Pelerin Society, by Paul Craig Roberts, 21 Aug 2008
Related Topic: War
Explains Roberts' rationale for resigning from the Society
"I have come to the conclusion that the Mont Pelerin Society is no longer an effective force for freedom, becoming instead another tool in behalf of US hegemony, ringing Russia with US military bases and puppet governments in the name of 'supporting democracy.' ... I do not want to be associated with an organization that is a front for American hegemony and wars based on propaganda, lies, and deceit." |

"... he was happy to be one of the founding members in 1947 of the Mont Pelerin Society, an international society of free market economists and scholars. ... Mises played a leading part in the Mont Pelerin Society in early years, but after a while became disillusioned with its accelerating statism and mushy views on economic policy." |
