We are witnessing the outcome of Dan Larimer's concept of Mutual Aid Societies that he conceived of in 2015. This is a quote from his blog, and @darthnava's experience falls into this: ## Mutual Aid Society Posted by Daniel Larimer on December 31, 2015. > "Today I would like to present my concept for a Mutual Aid Society (MAS) on a blockchain. For lack of a better name for this concept I will refer to this system as MUXER. Muxer is a social network of giving you can count on when you need it the most. > When you join a MUXER society by helping to support their members you join a community of people who will have your back when you need it the most. It is through mutual sharing of life’s unexpected and undeserved burdens that members of a society gain peace of mind." We are literally seeing Dan's ideas come to life. https://bytemaster.github.io/update/2015/12/31/Mutual-Aid-Society/

Far out. That is freaking amazing. I knew I was in on something special over the past year but that is seriously mind blowing

the reason it isn't marketed as it really is, is because the dominant European commodity model is so engrained inside of people, that they wouldn't even understand if it was explained to them. So we are left with: "Get paid to post and vote" The reality of how Steem was designed is revolutionary beyond your wildest dreams. But the information is all there, few delve into it, though.
