This is the general sentiment of people in steemit... The complaints about the large disparity between the whales and minnows and the lack of efforts from both parties to bridge the gaps have been making the rounds from various authors on their posts on these same issues... Some also give helpful suggestions too like you have done, while some are only letting of steam not caring who gets burnt or not.

In the end analysis, steemit is a work in progress, and everyone must do their bit to fit into this ecosystem, adapt to it and excel in it... Its like walking a path of self discovery, in quest of what works best for us, there are bound to be mistakes and failures along the way, but giving up is definitely out of question, because that would mean you accept failure in your ability to surmount or overcome the steemit challenge.

Like it is well quoted abroad "dont say what your country can do for you, but rather say what can i do for my country"

I enjoyed reading your post. It is concise and well articulated. Well done!
