If that is true then it stands to reason that we should be paid for our posts. I know, each member get 10 cents for each post that you submit, multiplied by your number of stars and bonuses for those posts designated as 'best answers'. Of course, MedHelp would subtract compensation for deleted posts and suspend payment while a person serves a sentence in Cyberia.
Gotta love capitalism.
