Dear People of the FTC: I have been an honest and caring distributor for Young Living Essential Oils, a wonderful MLM company, for five years now. I have been helping people regain their health with all natural products, something that is hard to find on the open market. I teach people how to safely use essential oils for first aid and long term health goals. These products are more expensive than the chemical laden ones you find on the grocery store shelf, for obvious reasons. It cost a lot more money to grow organic plants, but it keeps toxic chemicals out of peoples bodies and off the land. I don't make a lot of money doing this! It is a passion and a mission. The sign up process is hard enough and expense of a business like this is already quite high so: Please don't make the process of someone joining an MLM more difficult and expensive. There is nothing underhanded going on at Young Living. On the contrary, it allows people to have an extra income while helping other people. It allows Moms and Dads to stay at home with their children and still be able to have an income. I can't speak for all MLMs, but this type of company is wonderful and should be appreciated revered by all Americans for the contributions it makes to society: One for educating people on how to be healthy (something our society sorely needs right now) and two: for encouraging organic farming practices and Three: For providing non-toxic supplements and personal care items, which are far and few between. Thanks for listening. I hope you can crack down on illigitimate business, but please leave the rest of us alone. Roxann Parran
