This is forcing you to give your reward to others, if your a whale and vote on your own posts. There is only a certain amount of Steem created each day and allotted to rewards. Before this was determined and given by and to capitalists, now the minnows will be deciding where that goes. It's somewhat a more socialist system, where the old one was more capitalist, old money/steem whales could be considered capitalism. It's interesting, that's for sure.

Well chalk one up for the little guy. And certainly no one is forcing anyone to participate in the system. If people don't like it they can choose not to play the Steemit game.

Very well said! image
