Comments:

I would like to voice my objection to the proposed "business opportunity Rule" regulations. This type of regulation violates the "equal Protection" and "Right to Privacy" provisions of our Constitution. Other businesses, such as auto sales, electronic sales and the like, are notoriously staffed by unscrupulous individuals, and are not required to provide this type of information to their prospective clients. Under this body of regulation we would be required to operate at a significant disadvantage to these, and many more available examples, of other businesses. As an adult it is reasonable to expect and demand that individuals do their due dilegence prior to expressing their rights as a consumer or entrepreneur. It is unfair to place a "type" of business in a compromised position. There is ample information available on the internet, through the Better Business Bureau and other regulatory entities to offer a reasonable individual all the needed resourses to make an intellegent decision. In addition this type of regulation prejudices prospective clients by creating an atomosphere of mistrust and suspicion. Who would take a look at a company that due to over regulation has to disclose all its negative aspects, without giving equal emphasis to the positive. No matter how hard a business tries, still there will be those that are dissatisfied and or unable to produce the effort and dedication to succeed. Why should a company be required to cast a negative view of itself, when most likely an individual failed, not the company. There is adequate enforcable law to curtail the faudulent, let those laws work. Please don't penalize the vast majority of us, myself included, that work hard and produce valuable contributions to society. If you offer public live testimony I would like to express my interest in providing such input. Warmly, Brad Blevins
