RE: Hard Fork 21: A Case For the 50/50 Curation Reward Model

One of the often overlooked parts of all this 50/50 split is that in HF21 there is also a proposal to take from all rewards a part to pay for something that I really do not understand, other than a bit of all rewards will be used to pay for something and that it will come from all pools and people, from witness pay, curation, and authors. I do not understand it because it was only talked about as a side note it seemed in most post about the EIP and HF21.

The other thing that people are ignoring or have completely forgotten about is the ability of any of the dApps to charge a beneficiary fee for using it, such as the cut d-tube takes from peoples rewards, thus lowering the content producers rewards even more.

I know the arguments people will give are yes but how much do you get from sharing on facebook or youtube. If it is the goal of the investors to have eveyone return to facebook and youtube then they are doing a fine job of driving people away, and keeping them away from steem blockchain.

The mention of Palnet above is pretty disingenuous in my opinion, it should have been noted that with palnet even though it is a 50/50 reward system, there are two types of payment regular Steem tokens and the new Pal tokens, so while it is 50/50 split there are two different paychecks so to speak for the same content.
