re: John Oliver's takedown on MLM's

My focus was on the part that said "participants profit almost exclusively through recruiting other people". That allowed for some product sales value, but not a genuine business-sustaining product program, and it's still a pyramid.
Pyramid or no, under whatever definition, almost all MLMs are fricking scams that prey on people.
A turd is a turd, even if someone chooses to call it another name.

I'm not saying they aren't scams, but a legit MLM isn't a pyramid scheme because it is sustainable. Pyramid schemes are illegal because they are not sustainable. It's really the big difference.
Are some of the MLM's out there pyramid schemes? I'm sure, but not all of them.
