Its goal is not to govern members. Its goal is to lobby to keep the laws prohibiting their members' conduct from being enforced. LOL – The DSA has next to nothing in terms of “accountability”.

The DSA is a member-run organization set up for the people by the people. It is a group of accountability partners across many companies who agree to operate within a set of standards set by all. Similar to each single company having a customer service or qualinty control, the DSA is an enhanced group version. Let's look at Fast Food, they have internal controls and regulations each Franchise is expected to follow for the success of the organazation (corporate stores too). Most of these companies subscribe to and run the Quick-Serve oversight, they too watch each other to better the industry. I hope this helps explain how the DSA operates.

It is a member-run organization, meaning that the MLMs run the organization. That does nothing to protect anyone. The DSA doesn’t govern anything.

I have ,for the last 3 yrs. I have been a member of this co. we were never told it was a get rich quick!!! We were shown a way to save money thru group buying power, and we have, given the option to share the savings package and earn an income and we have, part time,is what we have done. We now have a retirement which did not have before,I have been able to stay home and retire from my job early, because of this co. I am able to help my children with there chilren , because of my time freedom being retired without losing my income. That 2000.00 you spoke of is only one of the packages thy offer, with huge coverage of family members that also can save money, on the things they allready buy. They dont have quotas to meet they dont have to stock products dont have to sell products, they simply buy what they want and need for themselves just like they woud any way only @ a groupbuying power ability. For that 2000.oo investment of only one time we have had nothing but good experiences, as for breaking up homes friends and churches ,I would question their stability to begin with. Honestly the worst thing that can happen is they will save money, if they use the benefits,and earn some money if they share the cocept of group buying power. I dony know these people to whom you are referring but apparentlt they arenot following the stringent rules and code of ethics tha t this co. requires and it should be reported to the ceo of team national . If you would like to know more of how this co. is really run, I would be glad to share my experiences,of the last three yrs.of sharing this with people that has had a good out come ,that are just regular folks.

They are destroying churches and communities, relationships and families with their "you're either for us or against us" cult mentality. It's really strange how people can fall for these things over and over again while others remain totally immune to the "get rich quick" schemes.

I only pray this will somehow snap my mom and dad into the reality of what they have been trying to do for 8 long years! This is a cultlike organization and I hate this business for making my parents dump their hard earned money on all these business trips instead of putting it into their retirement. May this book and the class action close down Quixtar and save millions of people and families from more grief. thank you so much for your courage!
