explain the difference between
a)buying X amount of GRC from a someone an exchange for Y amount of $ and voting with them
b)paying Y amount of $ to someone with X amount of GRC to vote with them
i understand that people tend to think within the current paradigm, however you should ask yourself the overarching question:
if some people are willing to sell their voting right where do you get the authority to withhold them from doing so (by banning/shaming/restricting etc.)?
well, saying that i am trying to buy the removal (via the 8.7 GRC that i sent back to grc-lf) is not an argument. it is a fact. my point was why are you guys acting like it a shameful/immoral thing? i can give you the scientific philosophy arguments, or i can tell you if you remove a project you get (1/(n-1))-(1/n) increase in your daily gains, or i tell you that seeing this project go is worth 8.7 grc to me and i am willing to give it to you. i don't see any problem with any of this. i would like to hear moral philosophy arguments to the contrary, not the usual, omg they are buying votes slogans.
free speech is the condition/right that enables you to do what you are doing. i was more interested in what makes you act like you do. in other words why are you disapproving. of course you can say "because i can" but that's not really informative and mature

I'm doing no such thing, I'm just posting on Steemit about my own views on the matter. There's nothing you can do to stop such a practice & nobody can ban/restrict you on Steemit. I do think it's better to buy your own vote weight, because that'll create buying pressure, lol.

A -> They purchased the GRC to vote with themselves.
B -> They're using less GRC than A to summon a greater possible vote weight than via A.
It's not appropriate to demand a voting intention when paying, it if it was rewarding all parties then that'd be fine.

You're missing the point I think... @cm-steem is saying you are trying to buy the removal of a project, and you have straw-manned that argument into
So, yes, you are trying to buy project removal. That being said, I think Moo! Wrapper should be removed.

Because free speech? I can voice my disapproval, it's not an attack.
