Comments:
To whom it may concern; I am writing in regard to the proposed rule for U.S. business oppotunities. I applaud the efforts being made to give consumers appropriate information to make informed decisions regarding business opportunities that are made available to them. Below please find my concerns: 1. I believe that creating a level playing field by requiring clear, simple and standardized income disclosures that apply to all direct sellers is appropriate as is a reasonable cancellation policy. 2. I do not think a seven-day waiting period should be required. 3. I do not think that references and a disclosure of past litigation should be required. 4. I do not think it is appropriate to require disclosure of financial records as this is an invasion of privacy and is not required when interviewing for other types of employment. Sincerely, Barbara Bach
