There is definitely that aspect of it. But it could attract more investors (the rich) who could drive up the price of steem which would benefit everyone holding STEEM, even the minnows (bigger payouts, etc). I can understand where you're coming from though. The rich already kind of own the system right now anyway and it seems like no matter what is done they'll find a way to stay on top. That's just the way it works...iMO
the golden rule: He who owns the gold rules
whatever we do, the rich will never give up their power over us. There's more of us but they have the upper hand, they pay us to kill, steal, slave for them and that's what they call community.
A new system is needed where the rich slave for the poor :) If you're rich it should be that you're curating/writing etc and actually bringing in something here. But as it is, the poor produce everything and the rich just reap the rewards.
There are some poor reaping some rewards. Carrots? to draw the other poor in.
Steemit is just a small version of reality. Hopefully we'll all learn from one another and help each other as much as we can.
You painted a clear picture. No matter what we do, no matter our efforts input, the rich always find a way to stay on top the poor
That is the ugly part of reality
Marxism. It was wrong then and it's wrong now.
Yeah right, there's always this difference between rich and the poor :)
