 These awards aren't easy to get, and if a team deserves an award, they deserve to be cheered on for it. - tckma [more] |

Woah... wait a sec
Hey people. Let's think about this for a second.
I love FIRST and all it stands for with all my heart, but we can't let our hearts cloud our judgement here. Do we really want the government funding private industry? For me, the answer is a resounding "No!" This goes against everything that capitalism is. FIRST is a private organization and should rely on private funding. If FIRST fails miserably because it runs out of corporate support, then that must happen. It's our job as members of this organization to lobby companies for the support we need. The federal government should spend our taxes on protecting our Constitutional rights and defending us from foreign attack, not on FIRST.
