Dear Friend,

I am excited to announce our next major project here at the Mises Institute, the Lessons for the Young Economist video series ([link removed]) . This will be designed for homeschoolers and young people. It will be something they will actually want to watch! And with the Mises Institute’s name on it, parents, grandparents, and educators will know they can trust the content.

The latest estimates reveal that nearly 2.7 million students have exited government public schools. These students’ families have rejected the state’s indoctrination and now they need solid instructional materials, especially in economics.

We have all heard the horrible and evil lies that kids have been taught in public schools. This series is the antidote. ([link removed])

Early in my university teaching career (which started in 1979), I noticed that the campus Marxists would essentially prey on the students they perceived to be the most gullible and easiest to manipulate. These predators included professors and various on-campus bureaucrats, and the predation began with the so-called freshman orientation. Freshman indoctrination would be more accurate. They would preach socialism to the students, never mentioning the realities and actual history of socialism, but instead spinning tall tales of utopian nirvana.

One student told me that in his junior year of a liberal arts curriculum, he had been assigned The Communist Manifesto to read in four different classes. Capitalism was of course condemned as immoral and an enemy of ordinary people, and economics and economists were dismissed as tools of capitalism.

Some students arrived on campus open-minded and eager to learn about the world. But they were captured by the campus Marxists and turned into miniature versions of their perpetually angry leftist professors, who were political activists first and scholars a faint and distant second. You probably saw thousands of them on TV participating in the “antifascist” riots of the summer of 2020. Over the past twenty years, I have noticed that there is less and less need to indoctrinate the incoming freshmen; they have already been thoroughly indoctrinated by their K-12 education.
