MonaVie’s “1 Billion” Statement Timely as CBS News Reports on Recession

 You are reading MonaVie’s “1 Billion” Statement Timely as CBS News Reports on Recession from the MonaVie Media Center. Just last night (September 22, 2011), CBS News stated that young adults “suffer from the highest unemployment since World War II and risk living in poverty more than others—nearly 1 in 5,” in a report titled, “Young becoming ‘lost generation’ amid recession.” The truth is that with the U.S. poverty level at its highest since Copyright of MonaVie
