The rich having more power is definitely a property of steem. We could discuss if that is a bad thing and how it can be fixed but that would probably mean ditching proof of stake.

the problem is that we keep trying to use capitalism to fix the faults of capitalism. There is no "good" network we could make that functions on these ideals

Check out abundance societies, they are not capitalism.

I was talking about steem, but alright it sounds interesting

alright are you talking about post scarcity? I was hoping it would be something different but that's all that came up.

Steem is not capitalism. In capitalism, rewards would be given directly from the consumer to the authors. That is not the case here.

capitalism is private ownership of capital. I'm not talking about your special brand of "ultra-super free market consumer orientated trickle-down capitalism"

Yeah, but the rewards pool does not function as privately owned capital.

steem power

I understand your point, but it is still not the same. He doesn't have to give away his wealth in order to spend reward pool money. The reward pool is owned by the Steem community and distributed according to a set of unnatural rules.

This kind of bias from users like you is exactly what I'm trying to point out when you constantly defend his wrongs but unfortunately I can't keep arguing against a brick wall forever.

did you just tell a communist that he defends the ruling class? Disgusting

you and many others would down vote them
you haven't looked at my comments have you

He was literally screaming reward pool rape at steemauto's post while upvoting each of his threats and posts with his sock puppet accounts. But sure. Support his arrogance, abusive nature and greed in the hopes that one of these days he'll upvote your comments too.

actually its so that he can ignore me long enough to get a foot hold and spread communism unchecked. Also I know he is doing it to support his own agenda but discussion is better than blind hate.

You have been flagged, likely because you are attempting to take advantage of the reward pool. Please see my daily post for more detailed reasoning. Thank you.
