Ending Global Inequality With Steem: Yes, It Is Possible.
1. Anyone can participate
Regardless of your country of origin, your credit history, how much you own, how much you get paid a year, what you do for a living. We don't need your CV here. Anyone can simply sign up and start using the Steem network to their own benefit - No strings attached.
2. You don't need money to start
What good is bitcoin going to serve if you need to put in an investment to get started? Can you earn money from bitcoin, or are you just wasting your time and effort browsing through faucets? You can produce content straightaway, as soon as you sign up on Steem. And you'll get paid for it. No fuss.
3. Equal opportunities
Why do writers in some country in Africa earn less than a writer that is located, say in the USA? Because there are not enough good opportunities. The USA author might have a range of publishers that have a large user base to choose from, while the poor guy in Africa has no one to go to, even though their quality of writing might be the same.
Steem offers a unique opportunity for you to stay anonymous while writing - which means that everyone has equal opportunities, and your piece of writing is solely judged on its quality. You also have the opportunity to take a step further and become a full time writer on Steem, which will yield you a considerable follower base.
4. Globalized network
There are no countries or borders separating people on Steem. The British guy can upvote the Indian guy, the Chinese guy can comment on and upvote the African guy, etc. etc. You don't have to be defined by the country that you are situated in.
This means that instead of labouring day and night for a few dollars a day, a person from a poor country can establish himself on Steem, regardless of where he comes from. And get paid the same, of course.
5. A supportive community
The majority of the community are extremely supportive people, and if they hear that you are someone that is getting an unfair wage then they are most likely going to support you through the form of upvotes. We at Steem strive for equality and fairness.
