You broke down and explained what the true nature of Steemit is in a very eloquent and easy to understand way. You have a natural gift of looking at things pragmatically and explaining the confusing and complicated in a way that even a layman can understand. Bravo brother.

I agree on all fronts, and this very topic is at the heart of quite a few conversations and squabbles presently. While I think them foolish and ideological, I know doubt some pushing this matter feel they are in the right and are doing what's best for the platform. But what you so brilliantly wrote explains what the essence of Steemit and Steem are. Together, they are social eceonomic financial instrument. One does not exist without the other. As soon as Steemit attached it's self to Steem, a currency, ideological dogma goes out the window. Great article brother! Re-Steemed.
