RE: Thinking About Values: What Does INTEGRITY Mean to You?
I have been living in DK and yes, it is impressive the integrity and coherence danish people show there. In Scandinavia in general, I saw the same attitude. Unfortunately, outside of Scandinavia and Finland, you can't expect to see the same behavior. Integrity is optional not all people can afford. In Italy, for example, not many people can afford it. Back to Steemit, the system is not yet perfect but it will reach perfection at some point and wales behaving badly will be punished in the same way or even worse that the "innocent" little minnows.
I think in Scandinavia, part of it has to do with a culture that's raised on the understanding that "we" is more important than "me," and that when we have integrity in our dealings with the "we" (society, the community) it automatically comes back and is of benefit to the "me" in the equation.
Steemit is still a very new, so there are many kinks still being worked out... although I think the originators of the platform probably underestimated the sheer GREED of many human beings.
I agree.
