I don't have a position on each of those topics so far. I think both have provided good content at times and less valuable content at times. I've voted for both, but more recently so for @dantheman.

How much they made in the past is just not something I'm bothered by or bother with. But it's true that there are issues with the power that downvotes (still called and displayed as flags) have over users and content, just like there are issues with the ease at which some users get a big portion of the money when really good content often stays in the 5-20 dollar range.
