Is USANA Health Sciences a Fraud?

A USANA rep has asked me to join now for about a couple of months and I have tried to understand exactly how the vitamins work, how much a person really should take(because everyone is different) and USANA'S pay scale is very strange.
All of the information I come across seem's to be very ,very confusing. USANA doesn't clearly explain what real income other's have made and how you can also make that type of income in the same amount of time. Instead at one of the meetings I attended all they talked about was "get everyone you know to get on there products." Okay, they are selling a vitamin, not a terrible thing, but everytime I go to compare there lables with other brands the other brand's are beating them on a couple of things:

Quality, Price, and Size.

All of these things are very important when looking at a famliy member or friend in the face who know there vitamin's Quality, price and size. There vitamins seem to have more of what they need for half the price than USANA'S.
I have spoken to many other people about USANA to see if they have heard about the product's and current USANA user's say that they love the product's, however the product's are too expensive, and often cannot afford to order the product's every month other's that tried USANA said they saw no difference and wouldn't buy the vitamins again. Also,I have also spoken to a couple of USANA rep's who are no longer in the business because they claimed they didn't make much profit and invested more of there money than, they actually made.
All of this negative information about USANA on the internet: "How USANA effects the body badly" scares me, what if a person is on some type of medication that doesn't do well with a product from USANA, and that person die's because of drug interaction with a vitamin and let's say I was the person who sold it to that person.
I would feel so responsible for there death and that's how anyone who doesn't have a lic.. to sell vitamins should feel. what if that was my grand-mother or grand-father seriously, I get more and more creeped out just thinking about this product and all of there negative attention: USANA, talks about GNC and other vitamin places that don't compare to there product's quality, I have been to a GNC and I have seen pretty good nutritional product's for less than what USANA was offering there products.
Also GNC and other vitamin stores are at location's within a local city that you can physically go to and decide on different product's that they have to offer no pressure.
The person working at these location's are making money, not working to pay for there position. I am pretty sure that GNC or any other vitamin store didn't ask there employee's to pay a fee to work at there stores.
I am not a doctor, I am just a person trying to make a living by selling a healthy product that helps other people and all of this USANA, lawsuits stuff, just doesn't convince me to join.
I think that each person's body is different and because of this factor a doctor is going to carefully diagnose a health problem and give the person being treated the right dose of medication. The same I believe should be with vitamins as sometimes viatmins can interfere with medications. Oh, in case you were wondering I have always been a top-sales-performer. I don't like to play with a person's health, because I wouldn't want anyone to play with my health, not for a second.
Yes, I did agree with something I heard at one of the USANA meetings and it's the statement about that doctor's all say "to eat right and take a multi-vitamin," but the doctor doesn't say take a vitamin that is going to break the bank.
