Re: A Corrupt FIRST?
Your claim of the KoP being "cheap" financially has already been discussed, but what the important thing about the KoP is that each piece of equipment we pull out of their is used in the real world. The knowledge gained from using these items at all (which would most likely not even be available to you if it weren't for FIRST) is nothing close to cheap, it's priceless.
EDIT:
Example, over the summer I interned at the University of Miami using LabView and the skills I gained from FRC programming to analyze blood vessels as they contract and expand.
