I seem to be missing your line of argument.
First it's illegal ONLY if income is derived.
Then it's illegal if it happens regardless of income derived.
Finally it doesn't matter whether it works or not, it is illegal by definition.

Could you please anser my original question.
What defines a pyramid selling scheme and how does that differ from network
marketing?
