Non-profit of the Month: March 2011- Cato Institute

Tired of the talking-screaming heads on television news?

One of the places I go for thoughtful analysis of policy issues of the day is the Cato Institute.

Its a think tank in DC that often says the answer isn't a program based in DC.

From their "about" page:

Founded in 1977, Cato owes its name to Cato's Letters, a series of essays published in 18th- century England that presented a vision of society free from excessive government power. Those essays inspired the architects of the American Revolution. And the simple, timeless principles of that revolution — individual liberty, limited government, and free markets — turn out to be even more powerful in today's world of global markets and unprecedented access to more information than Jefferson or Madison could have imagined. Social and economic freedom is not just the best policy for a free people, it is the indispensable framework for the future.
