Wow! You have said it all. You nailed it. Bots are killing, and depriving people with quality content from being noticed. I don't know if having the same voting strength due to the current price of Steem, would be a welcome idea, as people have been conditioned to "rank", just for their ego, but i would absolutely love it, if it is so. It would really show that "Everyone really matters" and "Everyone has something to offer", like @surpassinggoogle would say. It doesn't have to be this hard, they found a way round the system and made it hard; typical of the world we live in. I love your rants...i hope it turns into ants and creep its way into their pants.
