Date: 06/28/2000 10:10 PM Subject: File No. S7-09-00 I Just read the Motley Fool. I believe that allowing mutual Fund organizations to consistently rip off its customers is the most egregious UN-American act of aggression against the American people that the government has ever allowed to continue. Allowing them to continue to make it seem as if they represent the good of the customer, yet, truly just trying to take their money is truly unethical, and dishonest and, in the long-term, not good for America. Please stop this wholesale fraud against the American people. God Bless America! Joel Benson
