The President's earnings are based on the earnings of those he recruits
into the organization?

Only if every major US corp. has embezzeling where everyone takes a piece
of the pie, even if they did nothing to earn it.

A MLM pyramid plan is where the people at the top directly suck money from
the people below them.

Anyone who works at anything can get ahead.  MLM isn't a way of doing
business, but a way to run a business.

Many MLMs are scams, which makes the others look bad.  something like 1%
make it to 5 years old, frustrating 99% of people suckered into MLMs.

>By the way, AMWAY has made alot of everyday folks very rich!

So has the lottery.
