Last year, Brookings had revenues of 29 million.
The RAND Corporation had revenues of 157 million.

One year, one hundred fifty seven million.

Their grants and contracts for last year alone totaled 142.7 million. Sort of
adds a new dimension to the idea of being "giant" and "well-funded", doesn't it.
