We provide citizens and government officials with research and proven ideas to provide the same or better quality of service at the best possible price and reduce the size and scope of government. Every state provides the same basket of services (education, social services, etc.) but some states do so much more efficiently, which keeps taxes lower and promotes economic freedom for all citizens. It’s not an abundance of natural resources or other unusual circumstances that allow some states and local governments to have lower taxes; it’s efficient, effective government.
