I agree, the whales have too much clout compared to the minnows, but give it a month and the latest batch of minnows will get a bit of steem going and provided they don't squander their rewards and re-invest it into steem power indicating their dedication for the long term, they will build bit by bit and over a month they can go from the 3 STEEM POWER that comes free with signup to potentially multiples. It's not a get rich quick scheme, it's a participation game that will become balanced the more time goes on. The whales are early adopters and developers, they got their rewards for early participation. We are what? 3 months in, imagine where the minnows of today will be in 3 months...?!
