RE: Has anyone ever seen a witness do anything for the betterment of Steemit, if not... what's the point?

How are witnesses actually compensated?

What is the mechanism and does it provide any incentive to take actions to improve Steemit?

They get free Steem, no matter if they do anything or not.

What do you suggest they should do to help the community as witness

That is not their purpose, their purpose is to propose changes, or hear other complaints for change, put them up for vote, vote, then make the change or not make it depending on the outcome of the vote.
