Just in case you didn't know, the Mises Institute is a neoconfederate right-wing think tank whose stated mission is anti-government.
Mises fellows are known for extreme views, including pro-confederate and antisemitic positions.
So I take any opinion articles of any of their people as possibly being the ranting of lunatic, and reserve my judgement accordingly.

One infamous Mises essay blamed the American welfare state on votes for women, which it said resulted from lesbianism. Lol!

So leave the opinion pieces aside, and attemp to refute the real world example given in this link...
CARPE DIEM: If Sweden Left The EU and Joined the US, It Would Be the Poorest U.S. State, Below Even Mississippi

Here is the source for this information...
