Hate to address the elephant in the room, but do you think your ideology can really work in the real world?

While they did support the free market.

It's a libertarian think tank.

Are you arguing for the free market? As MPS individuals promoted the free market, thats really it. Since they all have different views. There is more to libertarianism than the free market.

It was founded by libertarian economists to have a place they could all meet. Not all their members are libertarians, most are, but you're point is moot, AEI has some libertarians working there, I guess they're not conservative anymore.

They're quite explicit in the think tanks philosophy.

Seeing how reforms have led to a better society and the society that we live in today. Arguably progressivism is a success.

And there it is! Libertarianism has lead to many returns throughout the world, it fixed the stagflation problem, it saved Sweden's economy. It helped the UK during it's own inflation problem. It lead to Hong Kong's reforms. We've had the highest growth in living standards in the last couple decades because of it! These countries specifically used the advice of libertarians to help them craft policy. We can say, it's been a success! Are you starting to get the point I'm making or is it still going over your head?

As women rights is apart of progressivism and so is labor laws.

Literally making the same point I made for Libertarianism, Jesus christ, lol.

Seems to me you are just putting words in my mouth again, even though I said some since the beginning.

Yet you still failed to understand!

know Cato did do a report on Welfare and is has been proven wrong by multiple people.

This literally has nothing to do with our argument. You can see many studies from Cato that are in support of welfare. Here's some examples you can look up, moving vouchers, universal savings accounts, universal education accounts. You can look at Niskanen too, another major libertarian think tank. They support a negative income tax. Expanding eitc for example.
