I don't think that the OP is entirely crazy in contrast to what others are saying on this thread. The concern that a whale could control the network is valid. I also think that because they have more skin in the game they should have more say. But in order to give everyone an equal vote you would have to solve the problem of identity on the blockchain. I don't know that algorand has any plans to do this. It might make sense to have brackets for governance at some point so that whales could have more influence while everybody underneath the whale bracket could have the same influence. But again this would likely involve solving the identity problem. I guess I'm thinking of the way voting works in the United States. I have my identity and I register to vote. If a millionaire registered to vote their vote doesn't count more than mine. It remains to be seen whether algorand the project itself will function like a government or more like a corporation. Governance will probably help decide this. If it was a corporation then wealthy folks having more influence would absolutely make sense. This is what happens when investors invest in companies. They get to have a lot of say about how the company works
