RE: Steemit Is A Scam! How Bernie Sanders Screwed Me!
let's just agree that all of us here @berniesanders @dollarvigilante are trying to make Steem a better platform. There is no right and wrong, and what's done cannot be undone. A lot of people think that bernie was right, a lot think dollarvigilante is right. A few bucks won't hurt either of you, and I a sure none of your attacks towards each other were personal. Good luck, both of you. May the best content on Steem win lol
Yes you are right @kudgar. The few bucks that don't hurt either one are essentially a gift from @ned and @dan.
None of us deserve any sort of reward. A place to voice our opinions without censorship of ideas by a large entity it a reward in itself. Yes whales can make content less visible, but they do not erase it.
Whales votes are like giving some people a megaphone and others laryngitis. Most people will hear what people are saying on the megaphones, but if you listen closely you can make out what those with laryngitis are whispering.
The money we get for content is a simple bonus on top of this and people shouldn't feel enraged to "lose" money that wasn't theirs to begin with.
The payout system could change tomorrow and posts could be capped at $5. Some would leave and take content elsewhere, but many would stay. If steemit were solely about making as much money as possible by any means, it will become corrupt and cliques and groups will form that attempt to destroy one another.
So far the developers and those heavily invested have shown that they care about their userbase and rely on us to continue to create content and generously reward us all for doing this.
I have no complaints from earning over $1,500 on a $0 investment. My total time on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube has left me with my initial investment of $0 for as many hundreds of hours I have spent there making the founders rich.
Sounds like the definition of a Feudal system. So does everybody basically have to blow @berniesanders on a regular basis to make any money on here? I have to say I am very dis-enchanted with what I've seen on Steemit. If this is the future of crypto, ugghhh.. We've replaced a handful of oligarchs who own the real political-economy with a handful of obligarchs who own the crypto economy. They set the rules. They shut people down. How is this different form the default world? It appears worse to me because there is ZERO accountability and they are totally anonymous.
Its ironic that he goes by the name bernie sanders, a socialist, when sounds like he is promoting tyranny.

Indeed. @dollarvigilante is helping this community to grow and @berniesanders is doing the same. Both of them want to see steemit successful and growing in the long run and lets not forget that lots of people joined steemit because of @dollarvigilante so yeah, he is a legend here so far. There are few things on which I strongly disagree with @dollarvigilante but that doesn't means that I dislike him or something. I also want to see steem community as a successful community and social media.
