I think we have similar views, then. I don't trust any of these organizations to represent my individual interests, or the interests of broad sets of people.

I do not have a lot of faith that our current society is as just as we would like it to be - we are too good at manipulating the process. I believe that a lot of what is produced in think-tanks is designed to further and promote a specific world-view. If this is not the same as promoting the well-being or power distribution of a specific subset of society then the line is at least very, very, fine. Cheers, Chris
