RE: ❓Answering Common Questions: How do I get more Votes? - Part 7: Put in the WORK!
I upvoted you because I think there's not enough recognition on this platform of the structural conditions which benefit the rich more than the poor. (I/ we may now be universally hated for pointing this out!)
NB - there is a relatively small movement on here (the minnow support project and all those associated with it) who, broadly speaking, recongise this fact and actively try to make steemit a more equal place, so there is hope!
You missed out: be an early adopter.
P.S. I am quite rich, I just also happen to be a sociologist interested in structural constraints.
No sane whale focused on cashing out in a decent timeframe would want to damage their ownership share, and no one really makes money critiquing the system so no one at any level really talks about it in length. Yes, there is a growing movement to address these issues, but they're a drop in the bucket for now as content viewing is dictated by existing wealth. Speaking of hopes of wealth growing, I'm not an expert in the UK housing market but the housing market in general is in a precarious position worldwide as central banks seek to tamper inflation fears by upping rates and cutting buying programs, which will put many things like corporate debt, housing, loan creation in general at risk.
And this platform was never designed with equality in mind of course!
On housing, gotta have somewhere to live, paying my damned mortgage off is my 2018 no. 1 goal.
