Any social network has its advantages and disadvantages!
And Steemit them. Grading system articles generally not based on the quality of written articles.
Participants more positively advantageous to assess those articles that have a large amount. Many put a positive assessment on the article with a large sum - even without reading it!
A typical pyramid.
It turns out that one large amount - much easier for him to gain even more. The rich get richer and the poor poorer!
There is actually a manipulation of public opinion. If you take a few people with a large sum of purse - can always appreciate they need post. Other people seeing a large amount automatically vote without even reading the article. Not to mention they agree or not.
Is manipulation of public opinion. Have not yet adopted the large scale and the social network is not degraded. Otherwise, garbage will be collected one article.
We need the community to decide. Or there will be high-quality or materials in the pursuit of money resource is degraded. No evaluation of materials for quality written articles.
