Mona. Vie-Acai Fruit Drink

There are several of those special juice drinks that are being promoted as having special health and curative powers --sorta like the old time medicine shows.

Why do Christians get caught up in stuff like "miracle juices", Amway, etc. etc?

Probably the most dangerous thing is the pyramid scheme where everyone is told to recruit family, friends, and neighbors as sales people so that you get a percentage of everything these recruits sell. Then those recruits have to get their family, friends, and neighbors as their distributors so they can get a percentage of what those folks sell.

Isn't there some kind of law against that?

Pyramid's are illegal. Not all mlm networking companies are pyramids. If you have a good product and a good networking plan it can be profitable for everyone. One company that I know of puts 58% of it's profits back into its distributors and it is a completely debt free company. They are building a 1 million square ft manufacturing plant that should be done in June or July and it is completely debt free and they have been around for over 20 years. A mlm with that kind of background would be a good one to get involved in.

In TENNESSEE its legal as long as there is a product to sell.
