Thanks @elew I think investing in SP is very smart as I said above. WOuld love to learn more about your experience with delegation and also a bit about the 'thick' politics. I have not yet delegated anything. If I do it would hopefully be to a good cause that is trying to build community.

See my response to my-permaculture above. But on to that I will add...
So thick politics, meaning hard to navigate, many conflicting views. Steemit is still a new site, and as we go through the turmoil of changes, differing opinions surface. Should people upvote their own post, one camp says no, the other says yes because they put hard work into it.
MinnowSupport is no different. Their mission is amazing, but in just a few short months they have gone from startup to literally becoming a town. I mean there are 6000 to 8000 members, which is twice the size of the town I grew up in. They have their work cut out for them...but all said they do an amazing service for the new steemit users.
I was there when it started, watched it grow, and delegate SP to help them out. I only delegate a smidgen in the big picture, but it all helps.
We will see where it all goes. I am feeling like I would prefer to support a smaller group. I think it is all personal preference though.
The thick politics are site wide, growing pains. I assume they will sort themselves out eventually. There are many amazing people here :)
