Greetings: In regaurds to the proposed regulations: I have been working with quixtar and before that Amway for over ten years. One of the things that drew me was the fact there was a money back gaurantee attached to all mechandise. The cost of establishing the business was and still is less than two hundred dollars. It was never presented as a get rich quick business. But it does provide a complete business sytem that working class people can take part in without risking large amounts of capital. Couple of points Litigation: the list would only spread confusion. The only thing that matters is conviction or judgements, By requiring a list of all accusations you negate our right to due process and the assumption of innocence. Financial disclosure: this is an discriminatory provision. Part of our goal is to empower average people to take advantage of the free enterprise system. The presentation stresses the idea that the prospect's potential income is NOT tied to the success achieved by the presenter. The issue is not personal income but does Quixtar pay the bonuses it says it will. What are Quixtar's Gross reciepts and how much is paid out. And that information we already provide. Reference lists. One of the greatest things about the internet has been the ability to expand businesses with out geographic boundries. Providing a list of Local business people would present quite a burden. There is also the intrusion in to the privacy of business owners that are in no way related to or profitted by the calls from Prospects let alone IBO that are not associated with his or her team. Being we are considering a business opportinity where there is a money back garuantee and an initial investment of less that two hundred dollars the ideas of seven day waiting periods, reference lists, and the like are all out of proportion with the "risk" of starting this venture. And these proposed regs. would hamper the ability for the "working guy" to build a business quickly and get the kind of return on investment that will allow him or her to expand their contribution to our nation and its economy. Thank you for your consideration Paul Dopp
