Compound interest is a force of nature. It will be difficult to overcome.

We all know crypto is more than just money. It's freedom, possibility, excitement like the first day of school. So, to hell with conventional economics. Maybe the chance for everyone to have something means that no one has the right to everything. And once a person and their family are financially secure, truly secure, what need is there for more?

Proposal - Rough
STEEM - anyone can own as much as they want.
STEEMPOWER - some kind of limit - I'll propose 100K - once a user reaches that limit, some kind of conversion to STEEMDollars that would target keeping up with inflation, say 2.5% annual. Users with less than the max SP, would have STEEMDollars that target the 10% annual. Or maybe there's a sliding scale.

The point is that inequality isn't the problem; it's the notion that there are already overlords and sharecroppers. That's the non-crypto system we live in now. Part of our movement is pressing beyond the current constraints of nation-states, economies, and enormous personal fortunes.

The 3/5s compromise was as ugly as it gets but without it, the United States would have never become a nation. Our Great Compromise needs to ensure that those starting from scratch have some kind of chance and I think that means there must be upper limits on ownership.
