It would be a one time gift! Not something repeated. Most corporations give Turkeys on Christmas in USA to their employees. This would be a way to organically find and reward the engaged users who are not writers necessarily. This place lacks organic curators....well, no they are right here in plain sight!

poor turkeys :(
As a one-time reward, I don't think this would be effective. It ought to be something that occurs monthly, but with lower reward values than you suggest. Either that, or raising the value of comment upvotes. Alternatively, they could scale back the SP multiplier such that the power rift isn't as great. This would make dolphins more powerful and reinforce the minnows' drive to become dolphins.
You're right, a one time gift. That's my point.
One time gifts do nothing for future generations of users and eventually we'll end up back where we are now. We'll have the same imbalance with different faces. Would you give a gift every year? That would bleed investors dry.
The only argument to this is that a gift won't be really be changing much in the way of distribution of wealth. In which case what is the point?
it would show the users and the world that steemit is dedicated to decentralization. The other option would be just to burn a large amount like Synereo did. That move on their part solidified their dedication and commitment to decentralization. By holding onto Steem, it doesn't look good in comparison from a user stand point.
I hope you understand that I mean this in the most civil way possible and that I'm not trying to attack you. We need more discussion like this here.
