Beliefs

We believe...

  • A free market system provides the best hope and opportunity for an individual and the community to achieve an improved standard of living for all.
  • That living and working in a free market-driven community and nation requires every individual to be responsible for shaping the direction of his or her life.
  • Thinking and reasoning skills make it possible for individuals and communities to make informed economic decisions.
  • That economic education results in opened minds that can anticipate, identify, and shape opportunities for each individual, because it teaches analytical thinking and rational decision-making.
We also believe in and value:
  • A balanced non-partisan presentation of economic issues.
  • The highest standards of academic and teaching excellence.
  • The ability of students at every level to learn and apply economic principles.
  • Our unique partnership of education, business, civic, and labor organizations as the foundation for realizing our vision and mission.
