Makes sense.

I still think that allowing SP to be bought so easily prevents giving power to active members in the community in the long run. If I understand your suggestion correctly, you're saying that you can just whale-proof your viewing experience to make it more democratic. I think in some way that would throw out the baby with the bathwater. If someone has a lot of SP because they have contributed over a long period of time, I would want to see their contributions to trending etc. I just dont want the DNC, GOP, Walmart, etc. to start shaping what I see and read.
