Slow and Steady Wins the Race...right?

Didn't everyone have to read the Aesop's Fable about the Tortuous and the Hare? Well, didn't we learn that slow and steady wins the race? So why the RUSH? We have students now fighting with each other, trying to out-win money that will fund programs for them. Why is this competitive? Can't we distribute money in a better way to be used towards the process of education, and not as a "prize"? I don't understand this at all...
