Re: White House Petition for FIRST Funding

Now I don't want to get all political or controversial here, but...
I must agree with what some are saying. I don't like the idea of federal funding for multiple reasons. First off, yes, FIRST is incredible and (proper) growth is excellent. But I don't think the government should be paying for it. Now I'm no expert, and I'm probably about the farthest from, but I think we should be cutting spending, not adding to it. I think if we want growth, we as teams that already exist need to get out there and facilitate it.

Just my two cents.
