Quoting Greenstein is akin to quoting Glenn Beck as if it has validity to a political statement.
I had some trouble with your links, but here's what I discovered about your Capital Research outfit. In its own words:

Quote:
Since the launch of the Great Society programs by President Johnson and Congress in the 1960s, many thousands of nonprofit advocacy groups have emerged, often promoting more government welfare programs in areas once considered the domain of families, charities, neighborhood associations, and other voluntary organizations. The growth of government has increasingly supplanted the voluntary action and community-based problem solving that the great observer of early American society, Alexis de Tocqueville, recognized as a defining feature of our country.

Capital Research Center analyzes organizations that promote the growth of government and identifies viable private alternatives to government regulatory and entitlement programs. Our research forms the basis for a variety of publications.
It looks to me as if quoting Capital Research is akin to quoting Sarah Palin as if she had the validity of a brain.
