Economic Controversies, p. 656

Jeff Deist is president of the Mises Institute, where he serves as a writer, public speaker, and advocate for property, markets, and civil society.

In his years with Dr. Paul he worked with countless grassroots activists and organizations dedicated to reducing the size and scope of government.
