Heated debates are good. They move things forward. I don't have a problem with that and I can take some heat. I'm no stranger to having minority views and going against the crowd. We should all try to apply critical thinking without fearing what others may or may not say. World would be a much better place if we could all do that.
I hear what you say, and have to admit some people had visceral reactions to certain key words like inclusion and stopped thinking straight.
They've made up their mind when reading few key words and instantly put it on the kill list without trying to have a cool headed discussion on the topic.
In the spirit of what I've said above, I'd have to disagree with you and say this not about economic theory at all.
If you think it is, please share your thoughts on why do you think that is because you haven't.
Actually...this might be about economic theory in a sense because there is a demand coming from people who want cheap access to masternodes.
Market will have to adjust accordingly and provide for this need. Litenodes would be just that. The market providing for a consumer need. I know some offer shared node hosting services but that's centralized and presents few problems as discussed in previous posts.
About the voting part; I never argued about equal voting for everyone, 1 vote regardless if you own a masternode or a litenode. Now that would have been communist. I've argued for fractional voting. Each gets to vote based on how much skin they have in the game.
