yet, they're so obvious
501(c)s like the Council on Foreign Policy draw from both sides of the aisle ... maybe that's a clue why little attention is giving to the Heritage Foundation (one of the favorites for cable news 'experts' for analysis, commentary), etc.
I want to see them on the things-to-do list for reform.
The Heritage Foundation is a public policy, research, and educational organization operating under Section 501(C)(3). It is privately supported, and receives no funds from any government at any level, nor does it perform any government or other contract work.
The Heritage Foundation is the most broadly supported think tank in the United States. During 2001, it had more than 200,000 individual, foundation, and corporate supporters representing every state in the U.S. Its 2001 contributions came from the following sources:
Individuals 60.93%
Foundations 27.02%
Corporations 7.61%
Investment Income 1.60%
Publication Sales and Other 2.84%
The top five corporate givers provided The Heritage Foundation with less than 3.5% of its 2001 income. The Heritage Foundation's books are audited annually by the national accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche.
