Re: FIRST - Reason for existance

To me FIRST is, and always has been, about working toward a societal change where the number of people who are positive contributors outnumber those who only take from society. Competing as a means to strengthen the entire society is what FIRST is about. American society, as the country with the most wealth and resources, has an obligation to take the lead in the endeavor to stregthen/bring together the global community.
