Is Steem basic income regarded as moral? I know a lot of things involving upvotes that aren't people will lead to people disagreeing with and downvoting you and I haven't worked out the general concensus in regards to steembasicincome.
I wasn't even sure about originalworks for a while there, as I wasn't sure if complaints were specific to paid bots or all bots that upvote, even though I regard originalworks as moral as anyone can call it, it doesn't cost anything and it rewards original work (which is a good thing), but I don't think it works anymore anyway.
I don't think I've seen seen anyone suggest @steembasicincome isn't moral. This is for two reasons, I imagine. The first and most important is that it encourages desirable behavior, which is to say, long term investment in the platform. One steem will get you a penny a week. Which is a great rate of return over time, but not the get rich quick scheme that leads to bad experience for many Steem users.
The second reason is that the mission of the program (and the good faith work that the creators gave put into it) is something most of us think is good and worthwhile. It avoids abuse, doesn't fill trending pages, and encourages generosity. Furthermore, those upvotes are earned often by work. People give sbi as prizes and payment, so they're because of value.
