Introduction

CATO is a billionaire-funded (originated by David Koch) faux think tank that hides its financial bias and produces false information on the topic of the government. It is very influential and produces faux research that works backward from what its billionaire funders want to its conclusions. Sources like CATO and Heritage (which hide their funding sources), are obsessed with government debt levels.
