I don't know of any other way to balance out what is happening on steemit with the majority of power being in the hands of very few who care more about profit than content quality on the platform.

The @minnowbooster account has nearly 3 million SP (125K held and 2.842 million delegated to them). And last time I checked, they haven't had any positive impact on "content quality." In fact, plenty of shitposters and spammers have used their services and still do.

So, Minnowbooster is one of the few accounts that you've mentioned with the "majority of power" and they are in fact one of the "services" that seems to be more interested in profits than "content quality on the platform."

How exactly can Minnowbooster "balance out what is happening on Steemit" when Minnowbooster is one of the problems throwing that balance off in the first place...all for the sake of profit for Ricardo and a few of his new buddies? Please tell me how "minnows" have been "boosted" by this vote-buying and delegation-leasing craze? Nearly every report I've seen about these services shows that there is very little benefit, if any at all, to purchasing them. As a whole, it certainly doesn't appear to be beneficial for the platform, as human interaction has apparently tanked in favor of multiple upvote services and multiple comment spam-bots cluttering the posts of the people who use them.

But please do carry on about "balancing things out" by doing more of the same. I'm sure more new users might buy it...then become disenchanted and leave, never to return.
