No offense but you are exhibiting all the classic symptoms of people pulled in by pyramid schemes: overly emotional reaction/defensiveness, an irrational inability to recognize/admit that your business shares all the same principles as every other pyramid scheme, etc. Your "legit" business markets itself as saving customers money via direct sales, recruiting new partners/associates is a key part of the business model, and the upside is huge compared to your time/money investment. These are literally the exact same ideas pioneered by Amway as they were building their business.
It's obvious that you're pushing this harder and harder as we get closer to your apparent Monday recruiting deadline. I'm sure many of us thought the same thing I did but we refrained from posting anything until it was obvious that you weren't going to quit; in my mind we've already extended you the courtesy that you're demanding and you abused the privilege.
Tell you what, let us know when you make serious money through sales (not including whatever percentage you get off your recruits) and I'll freely admit I'm wrong. In the meantime don't waste my PM box space by duplicating what you've already written here.
P.S. Suggested reading for stage 1 pyramid scheme survivors:
