It is very obvious that a mass majority of people on Steemit are here because they have high hopes of making lots of money for their posts. It is also easy to see when someone such as your self has higher standards and thus is rewarded for it. This is one of the many aspects of Steemit I LOVE is that we all get to decide what is valuable and that which we decide gets rewarded and that which we don't doesn't. Thats how it should be.
Thanks!
