Punishing a guy for being successful? Maybe you ARE the real @berniesanders
dude... Jeff Berwick is not my hero but flagging his post to appease the complainers is a political act. Not good.

No, punishing him for writing junk that's been written 200+ times on this site when he could CLEARLY be writing much better material. You'll also see I'm not the only one who thinks this.

@berniesanders: the guy wrote original content even if the subject has been covered many times. I don't see how that deserves a downvote. Sure he could write something more interesting, but so do you. Where are those great posts one would expect to see from you after such a sententious judgement? Basically if you support whales downvoting things just because they are "not original enough", this place is going to become a slaughterhouse and we will make all users flee. Beside the guy has his own followers who come in in droves and read his blog first. It makes sense to educate them right there at their landing point. I'm really not sure what you think you are doing here and what I should think about it myself. That's probably the most abusive downvote I've seen since I joined Steem, and it's really a pity that it had to come from you.

It's good to know that one can just flag any post you don't like. If we all do that then ALL of the content will be flagged. You should not down vote content unless or until a downvote button is implemented. It is abuce to flag a post that was not abusive. I am not a huge fan of the @dollarvigilante but i think that your actions @berniesanders just fucked up the system.

I get flagged too but I don't complain about it. I just consider them valuable market signals. Bernie sanders, Smooth, and the rest of the whales are all heavily invested in Steemit. They're the big shareholders that we work for. You can't join a company and ignore your bosses' wishes. It's their company, after all. Our stake in it is negligible compared to theirs.

When you bring a guy like him on steemit you'd expect he does what he usually does in his everyday life with his videos and original articles. It's like bringing in a very popular youtuber to see him turn into a regular blogger because it is just easier to do money this way. You need to understand he has the attention he has because he is known for what he does. He is not known for this kind of article which most people have been ignored for. Always understand the fame comes with responsibilities, when you are known for something and you see all the attention toward you, don't start abusing the system into taking the easy path. Respect to all the whales who decided this wasn't going to work.

The market was going to solve this problem. @dollarvigilante earnings were trending down. I am sure that you whales will learn to spread your votes out too. Circle Jerks are going to form around people of like mind also. The follow and feed functions will enable this. For instance i will be following people who know how to engineer freedom and plan to make #buildfreedom a thing.

I've been talking with quite a few of the whales and dolphins and most of them are making a conscious effort to spread their voting power thinly over a lot of posts. There are just a few exceptions to this who believe that Steemit should be like a casino that motivates people to keep playing by dropping spectacular jackpots.

Actually a casino isn't about "spectacular jackpots", but it's about not being able to predict the size or time of the jackpot. When you spread the winnings around you actually make it even more like a slot machine rather than like a lottery. Since in either case of a slot machine or lottery there is no guaranteed win, it's like a casino regardless.
Steemit can only operate like a casino unless everyone is guaranteed a proportionate payout and in that case it becomes like a regular salary.
