Seems like you are just bloating the pot for them to win it postflop since they are playing with position and most likely the best hand, too.

Not true at all. You need to consider how often they fold; they're not going to call a big reraise even with position just hoping to call a big flop bet to take it away. Very risky, and alot of players dont have the balls for that.
Think of the math too; if someone raises pot, (35) sb folds, there is 50 out there. if you make it, say, 150, (bigger then pot) if he folds 75% you break even on this alone. Vs a perpetual blind stealer, attempt to steal blinds pretty high, they will fold often.
Also, keep in mind sometimes you show down best hand or win it on the flop, but we're focusing on pf.

I completely agree with this. Except for the part where you quoted me and then said "Not true at all." But this analysis is just saying "If guys fold too much, then you can make money by betting." This is all obvious. I meant to imply all this when I said "If they fold too much, fine run them over." But my comment was geared towards playing against good players who won't fold too much and who will call re-raises loosely since they will have position and know that you are re-raising lightly.
