The whole point was missed by Amway apologist

In a bid to support Amway with over enthusiasm, the Amway apologists miss the real issue that is money circulation scheme in the guise of product sales and service.
They should learn the history of money circulation schemes in India. They cheated several thousands of people in rural areas as well as urban areas. Of course, there is no such limitation of rural or urban for gullibility. There had been an open money circulation schemes. The Andhra Pradesh State Government for the first time in India enacted a law curbing the money circulation scheme menace. Several other States followed suit. Finally, the Central Government stepped in and enacted Prize Chits & Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act, 1978. The schemes were effectively checked.
Every thing worked well till the Amway entered the Indian market. The company entered the country with the promise of foreign direct investment. It claimed that it was introducing a direct selling system which would greatly be beneficial to the consumers. Though the Amway registered itself as Amway India Enterprises, there is no Indianness in this company nor in its organisation Indian Direct Selling Association (IDSA). Several other such con companies joined the bandwagon of IDSA.
These con companies call themselves direct selling, multilevel marketing, network marketing, referral marketing companies.
These con companies on the pretext of providing business opportunity to millions with the promise of earning great profits, ultimately duped them. They also hoodwink the law enforcing agencies. It is only money circulation scheme with the people at the top only earning lot of money and leaving the downline hgh and dry. That is why more than 90 per cent people who joined such schemes become victims.
The main objective of all these companies is promoting money circulation schemes what they call in the USA ponzi schemes. Exchange of products is only a veil. The real motive is money circulation scheme to make lot of money. Multi-Level Marketing is Making Lots of Money with Other People's Efforts + Other People's Money (MLM= OPE+OPM).
These apologists are the bandits at the top level, making lots of money with other people's efforts and other people's money. It is a futile effort to convince these thieves that what they are doing is wrong. They develop a defence mechanism to defend themselves and their activities at all costs.
"The easiest thing in the world is to convince yourself that you are right."
They refuse to see reason and if they succumb to reason they have to forego their easy living and easy profits.
My aim is to bring awareness among people not to fall prey to the machinations of these fraudulent companies. Moreover, people would not stop from joining these companies even if they are told that they would be cheated. They must be told in unequivocal terms that joining and making others join such schemes is a crime attracting the provisions of the PCMCS Act, 1978. Then only they refrain themselves from joining such schemes.
Mind this my fellow countrymen, joining or making others join such schemes is illegal and you may be penalised with imprisonment of up to three years prison term and fine.

If you don't want to respond the the issues raised, then, "The easiest thing in the world is to convince yourself that you are right."
