It is a large percent, but there is a pretty strong argument to be made that it has helped pull the HIVE price as high as it currently is - which has increased the size of the rewards pool.

I'm in support of the @hbdstabilizer method. AFAIK the curation rewards that the voters get would be the about the same if they voted on other content. They are just earning a lot of curation rewards because

Zero of the money goes to me. The benefit to HIVE is explained in the parent post that this comment is in reply to.

No, I'm in central time :)
