Woolworth was the original five and dime store in the US. It was the equivalent of today's DollarTreee. Woolworth tried to become a discount department store in the 1960s. They bought Kinney shoes and

HIVE is in a thing called a death spiral caused by the stupid high interest on HBD. I am talking about interest on the stablecoin ... not the stablecoin itself. When a platform pays interest on a stablecoin,

HIVE is paying over a $100,000 a month in interest on HBD. People are converting over a hundred thousand HBD to HIVE. The HBD interest is spawning over a million HIVE a month. What I find amazing is that

The big question is how do we get health care for everyone. Turning toward the government doesn't work. If one can get a free market going, then the quality health care will appear as part of the market.

Sadly, when people expect the government to do something that governments are not set up to do, the people end up getting squashed. There have been hundreds of millions of people who died miserably this

Sorry about taking so long to reply. It is interesting how abuse of a policing feature has a worse impact on the platform than the spammers. To be honest. I've been working on the issue of monetary reform

Starting a power down will put a target on your back and whales might put an auto downvote against your account. !WINE

I couldn't figure out the reason for the downvote. If you notice; I am powering up author rewards and powering down curation rewards. Don't you find that odd? I have a reason for this. I realized that

I've been a supporter of #hive-watchers. Down votes can be abused in the same was as any other features of a forum. IMHO, when people down vote, they need to state the reason. The down-voter should remove

I was down voted for spending 1100 BEE (500 HIVE) to create a #hive-engine token. I wanted to show that it is possible to create a tribal coin that does not lose its value. My goal was a modest tribe with

It really bugs me when people post the same content on multiple sites. Copying and pasting text shows contempt for people who use the sites. It is also bad from an SEO perspective. Google drops the page

I thank you for your support. You have been doing a great job of supporting people. You've also been judicious in your use of the down vote. I've hosted forums and know the importance of blocking spam.

I fear that the amount of fake silver and gold is likely to increase with time as people who encounter coins try to pass it off so that the forgeries become problems for others. I prefer to buy coins locally

Nope - u Copy & Paste your content to steemit and blurt and earn there I'll give you ten HIVE if you can find a case where I copied and pasted text from BLURT. I have 57 blurt posts. Every one was

Did you just down vote my account because I have a 10 HP power down? Did you even read the post? The post said that I am spending 1127 HIVE to create a #hive-engine token. Did you notice that I am powering

STEM is from the education world. Posts should be about science, technology, engineering or math. Good educators are attentive to what is being said in educational settings. Traditionally the posts have

I try to avoid whales. I've seen several coins crash when the whales dump their initial air drop. STEM is quite interesting right now. The price is low. Most of the whales have left. The STEM rich list

I like to pick up the he tags after a crash. Tokens that trade at 0.00000001 have dropped about as far as a token is going to drop. ALIVE and WAIV appear to have core groups that support the token. but

I am glad that you had fun. A family got invited to a dinner ... and took my bottle of champagne. Lesson learned ... next year I will have two bottles of champagne on hand! The stuff keeps. I guess I will

I thought most of the tokens were over valued. I don't start buying until a few months into the program. I like to be in position 40 on the richlist. !WINE
