Should the USCF rate the Olympiads?

If we had a complete crosstable for the 2005 World Youth event, it
would probably take two staff members at least three weeks of work
to get it ready to rate. Combined with the other events, this means
that this policy could take something like a half year's worth (or more)
of USCF employee time to perform. Is this task worth devoting $10-15,000
worth of payroll and other expenses to?
A general question, just out of curiosity: You have payed staff to do
the ratings? How many are involved in rating all tournaments in the US?
