back from the store, so i ... just ... i usually edit all posts and replies about 20 times so its very likely people who read it fast miss out half of what's in it (hence the double here)

As to the changes , well ... plenty of people here suffer from tunnelvision, only yesterday i read about $100 being only $100 while in a lot of places that's less than a week's income ... not the days leftover money. All fine, but the internet doesnt start at the west and end at the eastcoast of America and middle classes are not masses. The way things are sold shows a lot , i wish i could summon and invoke people like Paul Bloom (or something) to give some paper-weight to what i say but ... how to say that

take BTC ... the amount you hold or the amount of money you have does not influence in any way, or give you any more or less right in the decision making. They have 9000+ nodes and no one gets paid for running one. No matter how much you hold, you can not prevent anyone from getting any
This whole thing is built on power and the way it's sold reflects the minds of the people selling ... It's SO cheap right now any idiot in a suit can be a whale (as the other whale said in more than so many words 'its awfully cheap to be a whale on steemit now' (he didnt mean it that way but that's actually the message
and its true ... without namecalling any guy-in-a-tie can spen a $100.000 and suddenly play roi maudit or little emperor since its no longer about money , but people who already HAD money can now get the illusion of being in power for cheap ...

$100 might be a months wage or more in some places in Vietnam (and you can eat and drink for a dollar a day there) but it doesnt leave you $100 to buy STEEM with ... so since it 'belongs to everyone' and 'the masses will come to save the day' and do the job for them ...

seriously wrong perspective over the whole line as i said : the way it's sold reflects the minds of the people selling it, it reflects the personal world they live in and it shines through : the way they see 'the world outside'

as watzlawick said , first axiom (communication science ..i used to have classes and girlfriends and social life and 150 people in my phone and all that ... money too i think, from time to time) :
first axiom : "one can not not communicate" ...

but i got stuff to do lol ... if i had any proposals it would be up to steemit to implement (who ofcourse does not own the blockchain that belongs to everyone but just happens to develop it lol , thats just the way it is and no one else picks up because the expectation here, from the start is : if i do the right politics , i know the right people and i say the right words in the right places then i get paid
What most do NOT understand is they get a share of the inflation, they do not get paid
so id have some popular proposals like :

first something they should have done with HF21 : reset all witness votes (like ever quarter Q1, Q2, Q3,Q4 , as the blockchain belongs to everyone, the plankton is the board to present to, it prevents zombie votes from lingering years after and it gives incentive (even to idiots, i should say guys-in-ties lol and that's not a generalisation and not aimed at you (clearly)) to re-think and re-work and stay current, not try and grow fat on a throne in the kingdom of the clouds ... on top of that witness voting should be allowed only from verified accounts, you wanna play little democracy then the right to vote requires you to register ... which is NOT an excuse for elder Ned to force one account per person ,(not even steemit itself has one account for itself) , for the creative process and personal methodology , more than one or as many as needed per
lets call that 'legal entity' can be a requirement (i'm a legal entity, ... so is mister UltiMatt, but steemonster/splinterlands , as a registered business is ALSO a legal entity) , and face it the amount of steem you have remains the same if you have 1 or 100 accounts ,
wether you got that by scamming, politicts and scraping or you paid for it remains the same too as the value of it remains the same and by then you already have it, now when it comes to witness votes that's an entirely different matter, if any idiot in a suit can just spend $100000 on a token that's not worth anything anymore to play little emperor (any investor would NOT lol do that unless like the winklevoss twins they just happened on a billion from facebook and dont know what to do with it) they would have put it it bitcoin, and the rest in eth or something (wall-street class investors ...) so if someone can just get $100000 worht of spare change from their pockets to play little king for teh lulz they can get 10000 accounts too so being witness here is pretty easy if you're rich enough (ofcourse no one would do that ???? lol)

that is ONE

two is to remove downvoting, completely , and combine it with an out-of-sight buttong, oyu can block people so you don't see them, you can NOT block them from seeing you (granted its a public chain but out of sight out of mind is a LOT to the normies (which is not the crowd ojou-sama refers to when i say that , that's closer to guysinasuit pretending to be crypto-anarchists) combined with an invisbile tag so people can posts data to the chain that doesnt appear as a post (maybe thats possible for node-holders or the guys who wrote condenser, but its not to everyone and as means of secure storage it CERTAINLY, combined with out of sight out of mind , would open up a lot of possiblities

and its euhm, well i been at it 20 minutes since right when i got back from the store i think the coffee i put on is cold by now. I'm sure i'll bump into you somewhere higher up my replies feed and if not i got you on my tracker/autovoter so all your post will surely show up :)

whew

:)
i dont think your two cents are too big, and if you mean in over your head you're not ... the system presents more democracy for those who chose to wield it, there will ALWAYS be those who try and abuse any system in existence and every system will always have its flaws. It still comes down to a salespitch and homer simpson will still fall for "Oooh they say it's free!" but people get to decide themselves, which makes it more decentralized , and this place seriously lacks that, so thank , and cya

edit : (lol) sure you didnt get to the bottom by now if at all ever :
i didnt mention any names so if anyone takes offense they probably have an issue with themself and

there's a reason why governments have election cycles and votes from the previous one don't linger around in western particracy (commonly referred to as 'democracy' by those in power)
