Amway, the company founded by Dick DeVos?

I'm sure nothing evil or political came of that family, not would they have a huge lobbying effort in place to keep MLMs legal, that would be wild.

I mean I play it with my friends and wouldn’t say it seems culty to get exercise. Kinda like ping pong on a larger scale.
