Comments:
I have been an IBO of Amway and now called Quixtar since 1980. We do support the importance of our prospects being told of the this opportunity along with the strict guidelines provided by the Alticar Corp/Amway/Quixtar business. I, we support the FTC requiring the information that a new clien/prospect needs to make a valid decision to commit to our business model. We do not support the recent consideration of the FTC to excessively add further time and consideration for this committment to be valid that also greatly hinders our new IBO to build his new business. This is another example of an excessive response to some illegal business ventures that punishes the very legitimate business model of the Alticar/Amway/Quixtar business that has existed since 1959. We do appreciate your concerns but please tighten enforcement of existing rules and apply the appropriate punishments to the cheaters. Thank You, Patty and Tom Mullarkey
