Independent Institute

The Independent Institute is a libertarian think tank which, according to its website, has offered the world "25 years of enlightening ideas" thus far. Its lighthouse logo is a reference to the debunking of the idea that lighthouses are public goods.[1] The Institute is known for pushing various brands of crankery, including Robert B. Stinnett's[2] work advancing the Pearl Harbor conspiracy theory and Thomas DiLorenzo's[3] neo-Confederate rambling. Being a good libertarian think tank, the Institute also denies global warming, hawking books by noted deniers such as Patrick Michaels.[4]
