RE: Proof of Good Governance

in #eos7 years ago

Maybe Steemit proves a point of what a community would operate like without any rules, governing body etc. A shit show. Maybe a governing body doesn’t eliminate the chaos but reduces the amount of chaos. Obviously, governing bodies ultimately will form anyhow. But then again, I’m just a sheep. Bah bah bah Bah bah bah.

Sort:  

I am suggesting well defined guidlines , not rules(laws). Community servants that lead by example and represent their groups. These servants would head up departments like help desk, marketing, events,public relations. They would voluenteer to do these things and be elected by thier peers. There would be 6 month term limits and none of the servants would have any more or less power than others. Yeah I know sounds very ideal. It is already being accomplished in world wide organizations like alcohol anaon and Narcotic Ananon. No laws,No rules, no peneal system etc. Its been working for over 50 years

There are also no monetary rewards with those organizations where Steem is based on the rewards as the tagline says, "Come for the rewards, stay for the community" I came to blog and now I blog and stay for the comedy.

Well stated. It is amazing the value the free market will place on a good comedy show. Now up to $5. The show must be getting better.

Markets are rarely rational as you are aware and more so in an environment that has no regulations such as crypto. IMHO, we’re heading to $10-11 based on pure technicals and fib extensions. Regardless of the comedy show. :)

Alcoholic anon is not a monetary system. If it was, it would be dead !! Your idea resembles so much with socialism/communism. It would be wise to review it once more!! :)

It would be wise to offer solutions to problems rather than complain that the current system is not working. AA is an example of a decentralized non profit that has been around for over 50 years. Please explain the similarity to socialism or communism. ib

  • The solution is:
  1. Isolate property boundaries: Where communities are isolated economic entities with their own currency (SMTs). This solves two problems-

    • No one outside the community can flag/upvote a community member.
    • Communities can experiment and evolve their own financial systems of generating revenue.
  2. STEEM remains the default exchange mechanism for SMTs. But no rewards are generated in terms of Steem (only SMTs)

  3. The communities are free to remove/add members and enforce their rules of conduct.

  • A communist thought comes into play when we propose a bureaucratic incharge (elected or otherwise, as election will be stake weighted not adult franchise which will rule out majority participation) who defines his laws for a very large community.

  • My solution would divide the community into small manageable groups who do have leaders , yet, function in a consultative way, evolving their set of rules/guidelines and evolving their personal framework for revenue generation.
