RE: Why Should You Consider Accumulating Steem Power?

in #steem8 years ago

Abundance is ever-present. Humanity supresses abundance through greed, power-mongering and other fear motivated maleficence. All real progress begins with faith, takes much effort and unity and ends with benefits. If it weren't for these, there'd be little to distinguish us from the animals and we would be living as they do.

Sort:  

I don't think we are much different than animals. As long as we all want to remain unique individuals abundance will be impossible. Value is created from scarcity. This is why diamonds cost so much more than sand.

I agree on the unique individuals point.

Value born of scracity is like fiat currency and has no tue value. Real value is generated by work and also lies in beneficial assets like arrible land, natural resources and ideas which enhance our environment.

If we were to develop an appropriate united world view which is truly benificent to all life, we could all comforatbly coexist.

It is the creation of scarcity based value which self serving entities purposely foster for personal or selective wealth accumulation which removes access to real value and real wealth which lie in life sustaining and improving factors.
