RE: Do You Know What 'The Sweat Equity Principle' Is? || SMTs To Address One Of Steem's White Paper Promises
Great comment, @brettcalloway!
When I see the word fair in this context, it means transparency, which is impossible to find anywhere else!
That's correct. Now one might ask if transparency is enough fairness. We won't be able to redistribute wealth but we could try to find ways to provide more equality in opportunity. That's definitely something SMTs will be at least trying to address, or as you said:
I believe SMTs will have the ability to bring people in on more stable footing, where they can provide services without being left behind from day one.
I'm definitely looking forward to it, too! :-)
Have a nice weekend.
I like how you put that:
This encourages people to dedicate themselves and their skills to something rather than wait for it to be handed to them.
When our twins came to live with us, a lot of people helped out in the beginning. Unfortunately, they also said some very unhelpful things - "How on earth are you going to cope with twins and work full-time? I don't see how you're going to manage." I started to think I really couldn't do it on my own ... and then the help stopped.
People went back to their lives. But I felt entitled to their help. I started to become bitter. When I finally realized that and crawled out of the self-pity hole I'd been digging, I took initiative. I started figuring out how my husband and I could cope alone. And how we can try to get ahead.
I think the best way is going to be through Steemit. I just read your "trending" post (congrats!) and that was encouraging ... and then I read this! <3 I don't have money to put in Steem right now but I have a little time ... and this is where I'm going to be investing it!
