If we build a large and strong community on HIVE, I think we will be able to have more say in rewards, but for now, we need to fall in line with the culture and current power structure of HIVE . . otherwise our users would suffer from unnecessary flagging and their rep scores would also be affected.

A Kardashian can post a photo of their ass with a strategically placed product in the background and earn far more money than someone publishing a research paper encapsulating three years of work that makes advances in treating and curing cancer. That's life.

Excellent point @bryan-imhoff and well said!
