How can the world continue to permit propagation of a lie called Amway

Shyam
I’ve long-since given up being scandalised by the flock of thoughtless commentators who have bleated (without qualification or heavy irony) the following reality-inverting propaganda broadcast by the ‘Amway’ Ministry of Truth:
The Owners of the Amway Corporation have created 3 Millions Independent Business Owners Worldwide with Total Annual Sales of more than $8billions’
For the previous 50+ years, out of the tens of millions of ill-informed individuals who have been baited and churned through 'Amway,' virtually none have managed to retail any overpriced 'Amway' wampum to persons who are not under contract to the organization; whilst the undeclared, accumulated overall failure/attrition rate amongst so-called'Amway Independent Business Owners' has (effectively) been 100%, because the so-called 'Amway Business Opportunity' has been a heavily-camouflaged closed-market swindle or money circulation scheme.
Self-evidently, any commercial scheme (no matter what its size) without a consistent and sustainable source of external revenue, is a pernicious fake.
Sadly, the sanctimonious little gang of Bible-thumping American charlatans who dreamed-up the comic-book ‘commercial’ fiction entitled: ‘Amway - One of the World’s Largest Direct Selling Companies,’ have been allowed to peddle it as fact for more than half a century. They have presented themselves as ordinary men turned selfless capitalist supermen and infiltrated traditional culture - surviving all less-than-intellectually-rigorous challenges whilst continuing to expand the scale of their unlawful activities year on year, until the ugly truth (lurking behind their seductive yarn) has become almost unthinkable to casual observers (including many politicians, regulators, Judges and journalists). In the adult world of quantifiable reality, the ‘Amway’ mob are absurd economic alchemists whose miraculous ever-growing Multi-Billion Dollar Sales have never really existed. Furthermore, the endless chain of wide-eyed dreamers who have temporarily become totally convinced that they owned a share of them, can in no way be accurately described as ‘Independent Business Owners’. This reality-inverting term is merely the ‘Amway’ mob’s own arbitrary definition of their victims (some of whom have lost everything and committed suicide). However, neuro-linguistic programming is only one of many co-ordinated devious techniques of social, psychological and physical persuasion which have been callously inflicted on 'Amway' adherents without their fully-informed consent, and which clearly identifies the 'Amway' organization as being part of the widely-misunderstood historical phenomenon of pernicious or criminogenic cultism.
Let’s face it, how can the world continue to permit the propagation of the demonstrable lie that:
Richard DeVos and Jay VanAndel (a couple of ambitious, but penniless, WWII veterans), became billionaires by inventing a new form of infallible, philanthropic capitalism based on the ‘Christian-inspired principle of helping others to succeed?’
