RE: Steemit Winter Update: 2017 reflection, our Vision Statement and Mission, and a look forward
Are you describing a planet called Earth, or the decentralized steem ecosystem, because on this particular point they both work exactly the same way. This is a job. Roll up your sleeves and do it or not. Choice is yours. I've seen plenty of penniless people from 3rd world countries become wealthy here. Were they asking for someone to save them? Nope, they already know it's like life, and got busy and got on with it.
It only depends will you do the "dirty" work or not. There are people who are completely fine with using bots to promote garbage content. I tried that on my first posts myself, I must admit, but I felt bad and stopped. There is the difference between working hard in a regulated, functional system and working hard to exploit the vulnerabilities of the system. Some people can, some cant, some can to some degree...nothing bad with that, but habits always remain. We are all different.
