RE: Downvoted by @randowhale
Very true, I think it is probably just a ponzi.. sucks in new users, pump and dump with hope.. and then wait for the next batch, while the rich get richer and take money away from the lower level members. I was reading the wiki on steemit and it sucks pretty bad as well.. most likely an article will come out on cointelegraph pretty soon that will hurt steem price in a big way.
Its not a ponzi bro and I can tell ur a good and intelligent guy. There is great success to be had here, I hope you find it.

How much did you ever get paid by twitter, fb, reddit or ANY other social media platform???
EXACTLY!!!
ZERO! Steemit is infinitely better than all of those combined.
Actually I never got paid by twitter or FB directly.. .indirectly may be a different story. That aside my reference to the ponzi was that users come in with hopes of doing something big, hopes of having the freedom to write freely express ideas and elevate others. Instead if they create an article that breaks no rules but is contrary to the opinion of another they article will be downvoted and the rewards that should of gone to that author for their work will be taken from them. I also reference the fact that some here, based upon their following or manipulation of the system can and do reap high rewards by spamming articles with absolutely no valuable content.
Bernie is the exception, not the standard. You will do well here. Just keep going. We need more people capable of objective analysis here. Keep reaching out for help, it will come. Keep reposting. I would expect some changes in HF-20.
Keep a level head and keep the high ground.
Thank you and that is what I will do.. I just truck along with the goal of elevating others....
Yes I think you will do well here and if you learn from this instead of be defeated by it you will do even better.
And also there is nothing about Steemit that is a ponzi and even if you get down voted to 1 cent post its still 1 cent MORE than FacistBook or Twatter.
