3. Well, here's a hint from their website:

"The values of freedom and free enterprise are more widely cherished in the world today than at any point in our lifetime. Yet the battle for these ideas is far from over. That's why this work of the NCPA is so important and why your support of the NCPA is so necessary." - Ronald Reagan

"I believe the NCPA's work and research are worth your time and donation." - George W. Bush

In other words, a bunch of people who sit on their asses making $150,000 a year to make the rounds on talk shows, write a few columns and generally not do much.
