I assumed that was the point of think tanks.

They are all paid. So tend to exist to further corporate interests. Such interests rarely align with society as a whole.

It is basically paying smart people, to lobby the voters, as well as politicians.

The Think Tanks are, themselves, the problem.

"Shit’s tainting the sewer system" ass title. Think tanks exist to launder the policies oligarchs want implemented. It’s not a bug, it’s not even a feature, it’s the very reason this system exists and operates the way that it does
