Tax Court Denies Amway Losses – Again
My first suggestion is that if you want to have a side business to make personal expenses deductible (which is something that you should not do at all, by the way), Amway is about the worst thing to pick. People with persistent Amway losses do not do well in Tax Court. The other is that if you expect that a side activity will ultimately be profitable, you might want to consider suspending the losses under Code Section 469. Although in principle, this does not immunize you from being attacked under Section 183, as a practical matter it does since you are not getting a current benefit. You will get the benefit when the activity becomes profitable or you abandon it.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
