I'm simply posing a question and hoping for the courtesy of a response.
I'm not here to measure one account's good deeds vs anothers, or bad deeds vs bad deeds. Taking $200 for a post for anyone seems a bit excessive, no matter who they are.

If it’s being just kept yes. True. But he’s not doing that. I know tons of rich dicks on here, having spent two months full time working on a documentary. Look at trending and see what gets paid way more, that doesn’t remotely get spread around to our ground floor. 1% of us are whales, but half are poor AF, and if no one with power spreads any cheddar, things aren’t gonna get any better.
Did you know that @surpassinggoogle has delegated Steem Power?
Did you know that he just used that delegated Steem Power to upvote his post at 100% Voting Power?
I don't mind 100% upvotes from your own voting power, which for him is slightly less than 5% of his total SP (). Using delegated SP for self interests is, well, self-serving.
By the way, did you know that all of his upvotes doing "support of the community" still get paid curation rewards? So it's not like those are completely "free"...
Look, I'm not denying that @surpassinggoogle has done AMAZING things for the community with his outreach efforts in the past. I'm just saying that he should consider the impact of a 100% vote on his own posts.
By the way, could you please let @surpassinggoogle reply to his own messages? I'd like to hear from him about why he felt comfortable providing himself with a $200+ self-vote (which is worth closer to $600+ in real dollars based on the current value of Steem/SBD).
I’m not stopping S.G. from responding to you. Nor do I Expect him to work for nothing. You do 12+ hours a day? You think his friends and supporters are clueless? It’s just that there are so many people only taking away. Getting paid for nothing. I’m sure you’re on their posts also. Nothing personal. I complain too, but I pick my battles, and make them with selfish lazy profiteers, not good men who occasionally take a few thousand cents for electricity and rent
You should check that number of "a few thousand cents". @paulag has done a few analyses on how much @surpassinggoogle has taken from his SP delegations in the past. The numbers now would be quite interesting to me .. in case anyone from #bisteemit is interested in looking at @surpassinggoogle's current voting habits.
Here's what he did with @ned's delegation a while back.. actually, 5 months ago.. so multiply these earnings by 6 or 7 in today's dollars:

Why are you so busy comparing X to Y when you're not looking at the value of X independently? Just because Johnny Killed 5 people and Susie Killed 3 people doesn't mean that Susie isn't evil.
Evil is Evil.
Right is Right.
Wrong is Wrong.
Lol. On the KILLING hyperbole! No one’s being killed. Investors are making 60% APR. but I hear you, and I’ll keep an eye out in all cases equally. I just assume S.G. is being paid some money to work as he does.
