Does anyone know Mises' position on the Cold War?

"the obligation to justice is founded entirely on the interests of society, which require mutual abstinence from property" -David Hume

AEN: Mrs. Mises seems to think you had foreign-policy differences with Mises.

MNR: In all the years I attended his seminar and was with him, he never talked about foreign policy. If he was an interventionist on foreign affairs, I never knew it. This is a violation of Rothbard's law, which is that people tend to specialize in what they are worst at. Henry George, for example, is great on everything but land, so therefore he writes about land 90% of the time. Friedman is great except on money, so he concentrates on money. Mises, however, and Kirzner too, always did what they were best at.

That's the best I can do.

Ron Paul is for self-government when compared to the Constitution. He's an anarcho-capitalist. Proof.
