FIRST is Running a Surplus

OK, I no longer have the 2002 competition program book, but I do remember looking at the fiscal numbers published in it regarding FIRST Robotics. The numbers showed FIRST running about a $800,000 surplus this last fiscal year, quite a bit more than in previous years, and in fact they were in debt only a few years ago. So why this new $75 fee per person when FIRST is better off financially now than it ever has been before? Why are they putting this extra strain on a team's budget (not to mention personal budgets)?
