RE: Upvotes - what's the best way?

in #steem7 years ago

A bit off topic but isn't it funny how we continue to help people who don't really need help. Not saying its a bad thing just an interesting dynamic. A while back Kanye was trying to get donations to start a shoe line or something like that and people were giving him money.

Kanye has probably blown more on booze and clothes than they will make in their life yet they are giving him money to start a business.

Then you look at thigns like the grammy parties and the gift bags and stuff they give out with tens of thousands fo Dollars worth of free iphones and electronics and whatnot to celebrtiies who probably already have 10 of them.

I'm not saying its bad and not suggesting we all adopt socialism by any means I'm the biggest capitalist you'll ever meet and I think rather than whining we should all work harder, be more creative, find ways to benefit our own lives but I just think its an interesting dynamic.

And the irony comes from those celebrities who complain about other rich people and hand outs, when they get handout all the time due to their fame.
