RE: Steemit's Only Problem: Whales (And Others) Acting Like Banksters

in #whales7 years ago (edited)

I love the post. I associate the mentality as being the difference between a scarcity vs prosperity model. In a scarcity model, which corporations, banks and governments function on, their goal is to restrict supply and increase demand to drive up prices and profits. However, in a prosperity model, the idea is that there is more than enough to go around. The problem with scarcity thinking within a prosperity model is that there is no profit.

Scarcity models demand that people pay for the basic necessities of life, where in a prosperity model, everyone's needs are met, nobody starves, goes homeless or thirsty. Prosperity models have people sharing and participating where scarcity has people hording and charging.

I see the steemit community moving towards a prosperity model which is a complete paradigm shift in thinking. It will take some time, but I see it unfolding. By sharing, giving and upvoting (which is free and costs nothing to the giver), I see this then shifting our thinking and then having that manifest in the physical realm as well.

I love your article. Well done! I am honoured and touched deeply on a spiritual level my friend.
