While off season competitions are run by volunteers, volunteers dedicate their time for a month or so... FIRST staff is at it the entire year.

If I thought about how much time and effort was put into IRI, I can't imagine those people getting together and putting together something of huge magnitude, for thousands of people, eleven months of the year and not asking for something in return.

Having everyone at nationals at the same time is a bad idea. Too many people are too hard to control. That's an awful lot of planning and consideration going into that.

FIRST and FIRST teams don't generate money, they suck it up. While they pay it back in full in the inspiration, dedication, and valuable skills they provide for students, money does not come from the program. Keep this in mind.
