In addition, such a selfish behaviour can be prevented by flagging. The best strategy for steemit is gaining social contacts and from there support for your posts.
If self voting would be forbidden I could search a partner account with nearly the same VP and we could vote us vice versa. Let's play the game in a fair and social way.
And I do not vote this comment :-)

This is an open system and people should be able to do whatever they want with their vote/money. Yes the system is better and grows if we spread it around but that should be the individuals choice not what others believe you should do with your vote.
There alot of people coming on the platform from developing nations maybe living off of $1 a day. Who are we to dictate to them how they should spend their votes/money? Everyone's situation is different and we have no idea if someone needs to upvote their own content to pay rent or buy food.
I myself upvote my own comments and post. I have invested over $20k on this platform, thanks to @jerrybanfield 1st video about it. I plan on investing much more if I can get a reasonable ROI. If I had to depend solely on upvotes from the community I would reconsider the value of STEEMIT to me.
I'm just saying.
Good points!
