I'm confused. He's giving some legit quality calls with follow up posts to prove it. Not only that, but i'm sure multiple people on this blog including myself could say it's personally helped them make money.
You're now upset because he says "giving this analysis for free", but accepting upvotes for $$$ (Doesn't like 99% of the people on steemit allow upvotes and isn't that why 99% of us are here instead of facebook, twitter, etc....so we can get paid for what we love and help out others at the same time?)
Do you just prefer he says - Please upvote the crap out of my posts? Would that honestly change anything at the end of the day?
The system isn't perfect and if we want to give him upvotes for the data why shouldn't we be able to?
As far as I know he's not screwing with the "system", he's literally just posting what people want to see.
If he wants to collect upvote rewards for putting in the time to analyze the charts who are you to say he shouldn't?
If that's the case then I'm guilty as charged cause I'd GLADLY take a lot more upvotes for extra $$$ for my content cause right now I get about $0 payout for my crappy posts.
Why is it now your decision to decide who gets rewards and who shouldn't?
Lastly, why didn't you just turn off your earnings for the comment if you're not into getting extra $$$...
Help me understand what the real problem is here <---- (Honest question)
I can't really find fault in @haejin and his supporters or in @berniesanders and anybody on the other side of things. You can't exactly blame a guy for pushing the system to the limit if he knows he can make >$8k a day off of it. Unfortunately, due to the way Steem is set up, any one user becoming that successful has a negative impact on all other users of the platform. Haejin's giant payouts mean less for everyone else, which may or may not be good for Steemit in the long run. If you don't think that some of these posts are worth $2k-3k USD, then flag them. If you think haejin deserves the money for producing quality calls, upvote. Simple as that.
