There is a need for professionals at home and abroad to come together to provide a blue print for the sustainable development of our nation. It is important for a group to look at key issues of our nation and proffer solutions.

The mission of the National Thank Tank is to provide high-quality research and education in order to promote a prosperous, fair, and sustainable economy. The Institute stresses real world analysis and a concern for the living standards of working people, and it makes its findings accessible to the general public, the state, and policy makers.

The National Think Tank is an independent, nonpartisan organization with an emphasis on economics, foreign policy, and national defense-through scholarly research, open debate, public education and publications. The Think tank is dedicated to preserving and strengthening the foundations of freedom-limited government, private enterprise, vital cultural and political institutions, and a strong foreign policy.
