What a wonderful post! I was drawn immediately to your article before knowing that you had included a reference to one of mine which was a pleasant surprise. You hit the nail on the head when saying:
"The way that scientific knowledge is monetized in the modern day today for more profits at the expense of scientists doing good for the improvement of humanity is beyond me. Putting a price tag on knowledge which is explored and created by scientists, and then asking scientists to pay for their own work. "
I'm so excited for the future of decentralized knowledge and that Steemit has people like you who are heading the movement.
