Comments:

To Whom it May concern: I am writing in regards Business Opportunity Rule, R511993. In my view the consequences of the proposed requirements include unnecessary alarm about the legitimacy of companies and their compensation plans, a gross violation of privacy of all distributors, a time-consuming sign-up and disclosure process that may lead to enthusiastic prospects losing interest, and the increase of expenses for both company and distributor, among several other adverse effects. In short this rule will greatly interfere with my ability, and that of millions of Americans like me, to create and conduct a legitimate home business. The vast, vast majority of us are decent, law-abiding citizens who are trying to be financially responsible by creating our own home business by networking with others who might be interested in our products and perhaps even in helping themselves out financially by creating their own home-based business! This rule would very much interfere in the process and is simply unnecessary. Thank you for your attention! Leonard Thornton
