i think i get it

tangentc is just jealous that some people work and put effort in and get rewarded for those efforts, and he just cant cope with not getting paid for doing nothing, so wants to fight and argue that bitcoin should change and reward leachers that dont offer anything to bitcoins security.

what he does not realise is in proof of stake, there is still only a set number of blocks made a day and only a set amount of reward per block. if a PoS coin actually became useful to a wide userbase, where the coin attained value. those 'stakes' no longer allow everyone to get paid.
(too many people fighting over limited slices of pie)

instead only a few hundred 'stakes' out of millions would get paid a day.
where those few hundred 'stakes' would be the ones with the highest value(rich) stake in play.

leaving millions of average joe without a chance.

thus creating the same paradigm tangentc cries about when he cries about the elitism of miners.

what he does not realise is that the elitism is not to do with asics or electric. its due to the popularity of the coin by having so many people wanting some, but so little opportunity to get some via the block confirmation process, whether it be pow or pos.

so far pos coins are crap coins so dont have much of a community to display this fight over the slices of pie.

if bitcoin did change to PoS, the elitism would not disappear. but what would disappear is bitcoins value.
after all if everyone could mine gold in their back yard for $1 using a spoon and a coffee filter, everyone would sell it for $2 to 2x profit. gold would not be worth over $1k.

bitcoins value is based on the acquisition costs. no one wants to sell at a loss.
pos coins have no 'cost' so anyone getting it would sell at any price. especially if everyone was able t get it for free.

but hey, tangentc does not care about value. nor security which would cost an attacker billions to fight to break the security. all he cares about is trying to get his hands on some free pie, no matter the consequence
