About

The Independent Institute is a libertarian think-tank. It apparently takes positions against the war on drugs, neoconservatism, immigration restrictions, corporate welfare, restrictions on reproductive rights, and capital punishment -- but have also purveyed global warming denial, though this may be a minority view within the organization.

Research fellows include Paul Craig Roberts; seems to have some connection with global warming denialist S. Fred Singer.
