The American Snake-Oil Show

Came across this article from www.jenman.com.au about "The American Snake-Oil Show" -

http://www.jenman.com.au/news_report.php?id=7.

Though dated, it's amusing to note the following characters that showed up in this road show, check the article out.

The stars of the THE AMERICAN SNAKE-OIL SHOW:

1. Raymond Aaron
2. Marco Kozlowski
3. Sean Roach
4. Wright Thurston

Here's an excerpt of his thoughts:

"This was unbelievable. I cannot believe people can be so gullible with this American and Canadian drivel.

People were hurrying toward the back of the room to sign up with their credit cards in hand, in case they missed out on being one of the lucky few (because, according to the speakers – sorry, spruikers – "they can't take all of us") to join the other "students" in the past who have become rich with these courses.

Some people signed for all the spruikers' courses. I felt embarrassed for them."
