I have been affiliated with Quixtar/Amway for the past 23 yrs and have reached the Founder's Platinum level. I have lots of IBOs in my downline which include Diamonds, Emeralds and many hardworking Platinums and their groups. This has been the best association that I could have put my-self in to lead a fuller, more meaningful life of helping others. All this was done with tremendous help from my upline. When I look at this severely restrictive proposal, I think this must be the feeling that oppressed, (which Webster defines as to "crush or abuse of power or authority") people must feel being governed by a backward thinking dictator. THIS IS AMERICA...LAND OF THE FREE!!!! The other day I was snaking a drain under a bathroom sink. I purchased a new 20 ft snake for the job. Its the kind that the snake is stored in a round cannister and you turn the cannister as you advance the snake farther into the drain pipe. As I was retracting the wet snake into the turning cannister I noticed that unlike other snakes that I used before, this model had vent holes in the metal cannister and that as I turned the cannister...the filty water that accumulated in the cannister was flying out of the vent holes and hitting me in the face. I thought about your proposal and figured that... who ever designed this snake ... never used one. Thank you, Lionel Machado
