If steem can be transformed in exactly the thing you described that would be a revolution worldwide.
It would also be the logical next step in our society, more and more jobs are being automated, especially hard labor is mostly done by machines in all different industries.
More and more people will be out of jobs and I believe the economy will move from a laboring society, to one that produces art and productive content and where a large majority makes a living sharing its passions with the world.
I myself am a struggling artist and musician, at the moment without income, trying to somehow find a job and at the same time manage to start build a following that I can make some income through my content, music and art that I create and share.
It has been very disheartening journey so far. Since a small voice like mine in a country such as Luxembourg, has tremendous difficulties getting even a small following. One is drowned out by all the big players.
