I wish to STRONGLY OBJECT to the SEC's adoption of a rule that exempts
broker dealers from appropriate investment advisory standards.  It is very
important that consumers have the best, most unbiased advice possible.
Particularly with the future of social security at risk, the decline of the
guaranteed pension, and the volatility of the stock market, consumers need
good advice to be able to plan for their financial future.  I would think
that the SEC, given recent scandals, would bend over backwards to ensure the
objectivity and integrity of those areas of the marketplace that they
oversee.

Regards,
Jean Fullerton
