I think if people stopped coming here with their hands out expecting to be rewarded for at best mediocre content made with money in mind not the content itself the platform would grow much faster. The biggest problem with steem is it’s full of blood sucking parasites (but has many great creators too) bottom line money makes people behave badly

People's behavior can just about always be linked to an incentive structure. The incentive on Steem is to produce regular(daily) content, not high quality content when it comes to authors. For curators, the incentive is primarily to delegate to a bid bot. If you change the incentive structure you change the behavior.
I read a post by a Steemian once that said, if there was a law that paid people $1k to shit on the street, it would be a waste of time to tell people to stop shitting on the streets, you'd need to change the law. This is the situation with Steem as well. The system needs tweaking to align incentives with the behavior we want to see.
Yeah I agree 100%, tweaking the incentives would by far be the best way to change things here.
