What you're saying is spot on. However, it has been valuable for businesses to get the word out to their local communities and to help raise awareness and funding for charitable organizations and projects.
On that note - I'm hoping to start something big here on Steemit. If you could help spread the word, I'd appreciate it. This is a great way to demonstrate voluntary cooperation and international trade without the need for middlemen and rulers.
