History

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.

Specialties

So helpful! Plus the donations are tax deductible. If your're a classical liberal and enjoy reading up on the theories of Friedman, this is an organization for you!
