Witness voting is not for selecting any political leader. Its for selecting someone to run some servers to secure the blockchain and get huge rewards for that. They are making huge profits. So they may need to do so many things to secure that position including buying votes. It's more business than any service. So I am sure that some day, all of the witnesses will have to buy votes

actually they don't make huge profits.. the only ones who make any profit are the top 20 and most of those put back into the community. You concept of buying votes is distasteful and speaks to who you are
