STEEM is a SOCIAL experiment. Not a SOCIALIST experiment.

It is awesome when good quality content gets voted and it is also great when low quality posts end up getting $30K. All Fine. This is how the system works and It is just like real life where some amazing artists will struggle to survive and Britney Spears sells millions of records. Remember that, in "real" life, some talented artists will also make a lot of money and some terrible ones will become jokes.

This platform plays with the rules that govern our world, distorting them and challenging the status quo, but it is still part of the same economic environment that we share.

But some things are not ok...

I've been seeing an increasing number of charity posts that promise donations and happy children on the most remote places in the world. Some are definitely fake and It is not ok to create fake charity post to collect thousands from good people. We, the community, can be more careful when voting for this type of post. They may be real, but it will be really hard to prove and we should investigate first.

It is also not a good a idea to...

...steal articles, videos and other creative content, copy and paste them here and not give the proper credits. You are stealing someone's else intellectual property with a purpose to make a profit, because you suck as a creative.

Give the proper credits when using other people's work. Please.

...

BTW all the money I make with this post will go to myself. Trying to be honest here.
