<p>Hi, I'm new to steem, I guess like most of us here and I'm slowly starting to understand how it works.</p>
<p>There Is High Inflation of Steempower due to the reward system on voting. It seems we all benefit from that in a way since our steempower balance grows even if we don't vote. If we work hard writing good posts and upvoting the right ones we can earn even more. But I think the few people who own the majority of the shares have an unfair advantage because of their voting power.</p>
<p>Having a lot of steempower makes it much easier to grow your balance even faster doesn't it? So I guess proportionally, an account with a lot of steempower will grow faster than an account that doesn't have much (in terms of interest rate) unless the account with a lot of steempower doesn't vote or publish anything.</p>
<p>What this means is that the proportion of total shares would keep getting bigger for the big accounts and keep getting smaller for the small accounts.</p>
<p>Maybe I'm missing something here and please enlighten me if I am.</p>
