To me, it is unfair that a minnow would put a 3 page educative, entertaining and highly cerebral post and goes home with little or nothing to show for it while a whale can easily snap his cat and make a meme from it and spins hundreds of dollars. I know the system is not perfect but I still believe something can be done about this. I am not against memes though.

well, it's certainly fair as far as people having free will to use their stake to reward content they find valuable.

An intelligent contribution I must say @randykrafft
yup...life is not fair...
oh woe..
their own money get greater rewards than someone who signed up for a totally free account? Is it "fair" that after a year and 500+ top level posts, the few dollars I will get as a reward will still be less than the whale with a meme of his cat?"Unfair"is such a weird and vague word @penking. Is it "fair" that when I got to Steemit about a year ago I wrote "long form" posts with nice photos and well-presented... and sometimes earned $0.00 for my efforts?Is it "fair" that someone who invested $1 million of
I do think that it is quite fair that I have been able to blog about whatever I want for a year and have earned some rewards in the process. I am not "owed" rewards, I take them thankfully, as they come.
Well, this is an intelligent reply. I now understand the angle you are coming from.
