Quite frankly I'm just glad that there is finally an outlet/platform for my writing. Of course I do look at the monetary aspect of steemit because it is at the end of the day a business but all in all it's about the content for me. Also, just a side note but I never read the comments straight after reading an article, I write my comment first, if I feel the inclination too and If i happen to share a point of view with someone else, so be it. In fact their generally the people I end up following. It is common sense, unfortunately a trait not shared by everyone. Keep on steeming... djr420
