About Cato</b></p><p>
The Cato Institute is a public policy research organization &ndash; a think tank &ndash; dedicated to the principles of individual liberty, limited government, free markets, and peace. Its scholars and analysts conduct independent, nonpartisan research on a wide range of policy issues.</p><p>
Founded in 1977, Cato owes its name to Cato&rsquo;s Letters, a series of essays published in 18th-century England that presented a vision of a society free from excessive government power. Those essays inspired the architects of the American Revolution. And the simple, timeless principles of that revolution &ndash; individual liberty, limited government, and free markets &ndash; turn out to be even more powerful in today&rsquo;s world of global markets and unprecedented access to 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.</p><p>
