Is Herbalife a Mormon creation?
I don't know about the founders, but it looks like it's making it's way through the ranks.
Part of the reason for this is that the LDS sect teaches that it is a sin for women to work outside the home...so they look for these "work at home scams".
The freaking worst I ever saw was the Boyscout "fundraiser popcorn tins"....I was scoutmaster for a several years, and was ORDERED to use this as a fundraiser. I told the bishop at the time that the numbers didn't add up and that almost ANYTHING would have been a better fundraiser for the boys. He was adamant and told me orders had come form "on-high". As I recall, folks were guilt forced into buying $25-50 dollar tins of Christmas popcorn and the poor boys got about 5%. The company was in Salt Lake and no doubt owned by someone with power to give or arrange orders from "on high".
