How Should We Improve Seeking Alpha's Comment Rating System?

I would much rather vote on the value of the article than on the comments.
This would raise the standard of articles submitted. What a bummer to read an article and have learned nothing. Some comments are very insightful and others are idiocy. Voting on comments tends to skew towards the first people to post after an article is submitted, while the last comments, even if they are the most insightful, tend to get less read, and less votes.

One suggestion might be a sideways thumb, not up or down, but neutral. However, this requires more data management by SA, and I suspect they are trying to save $, so they will get rid of voting on comments, and only allow voting on articles.
