Oh... Yes. It scares the shit out of me. Because, and I will keep this at one example only, how will I *not* upvote the holiday pics of my mother, the person who brought me into this world, who I confide in, who I love, who I admire, and who is deemed *too old* now by the 'old economy'/society to be able to find another job after she got fired from the last one due to saving measures by the company she has worked for for 15 years?

How will I *not* soften that blow for her and give her my 28$/1 upvote a day (or whatever I'll be by then)? 

I don't know how I would *not* upvote her and I just *might* pick her to give my 1/10th voting power to instead of that super quality post I just read... And feel both good and bad about it at the same time. 

And *we* are the ones actually thinking about this and trying to find a moral path. Many many others will not...

It is going to be an age of conflict that will hopefully lead to an enlightenment. 

>How will I not soften that blow for her and give her my 28$/1 upvote a day (or whatever I'll be by then)?

There is one thing that will potentially help. Blockchain and its value is the only way to truly have a Universal Basic Income implemented to where it needs to be which is, globally. Hopefully there is enough distributive power and value to ensure that all are covered to a basic level.

Yes, fingers crossed for that one: a true UBI.

Universal basic income is all good but implementing that would need governments accepting the blockchain technology as a progressive system and an economic evolution. Right now I don't see my country's government even considering it. 

As to upvoting family and friends, I think it would be difficult to avoid because even now when the price is this low, there are those who still drop links in your dm and when you ignore them, they don't chat with you for weeks. 😂 

Everybody has an expectation from their family members or friends who are thought to be doing well. Weirdly, those whom you onboarded but posted only once will still want to be a part of the fun once steem gets to that price. 

The truth is you'd lose many 'friends' if you do not give them a part of your vote even if they are regular shitposters. I guess one has to consider the real world value of that friendship, the person's needs and the person's skills in giving out votes. 

As to my parents, I'd vote their comments and memes 100%. That is not cronyism, that is simply welfare package in their old age. They have done well. 😉

That is the problem, governments. For it to actually happen it needs to be funded without them. Remember that governments spend our money, not the other way around so holding the value ourselves means deciding where it is put. Enough value held in the blockchains and yeah, it can happen. 

> I guess one has to consider the real world value of that friendship, the person's needs and the person's skills in giving out votes.

This consideration is going to be a wakeup call for what / who is important to support for many. 

>As to my parents, I'd vote their comments and memes 100%. That is not cronyism, that is simply welfare package in their old age. They have done well.

such an interesting thought train. i would definitely give the vote to my mom. other friends- i would likely explain to them the value concept. if they played along and added value, i would happily add them. 

this is all very interesting. good thought provoking post and comments!

(but luckily i already onboarded my mom and she has invested in some steem, so i think she'll have a good upvote to give me back ;) lol)

vote-trading! :P

I think the thing is about finding balance to keep a strong social fabric and support community growth.
