		<description>Thank you for your reply.&lt;br&gt;However, proposing a plan for solar and wind will not jump start our economy fast enough. It will take a number of years to get permits, to build , environmental challenges, staffing and training personnel as well as having real proof of the benefits. I think we should consider all future energy and what our needs will be. But, factually speaking last month unemployment was 535,000 people, our total unemployment is some where in the range of 6-8 million people, California&#039;s  unemployment rate is almost at 9%. A real &quot;WINNER&quot; is something that will help people today who are unemployed and facing foreclosure or in the process of being displaced from their home because of  all the jobless in our country as a result of  our recently declared RECESSION. Last but not least, our economy is made up of 2/3 of consumers&#039; spending. If people are unemployed, fearful of the uncertainty of our economy and or in the process of losing their jobs, consumers&#039; spending will continue to decline. Hopefully, you find that I am a strong and loyal American who has step-up to the plate for others. I just hope that you support this proactive efforts and tell your congressman or congresswoman to join the effort. As one great leader once stated to all Americans,&quot; it is not what this country can do for you, it is what you can do for this country&quot;, President John F. Kennedy January 1961.</description>

I write to you with hopes that we can discuss this bold plan that I have created which will require federal assistance.  I also write to you with hopes that you will champion this cause so that we may implement this plan in time to prepare for the second wave of foreclosures projected for 2009 – 2010.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have been in business since September 1981 in the areas of Real Estate, Finance, Taxes and Business Strategy along with possessing a legal background.

<p>RE:  Solutions for the Housing &#038; Job Crisis by using small businesses to jump start the economy effective as of Jan. 21, 2009 </p>
<p>Dear Shaun Donovan,</p>
<p>I have made several attempts to contact members of congress, the senate and the new administration’s transitional team regarding solutions for the housing and job crisis but to no avail. I write to you with hopes that we can discuss this bold plan that I have created which will require federal assistance.  I also write to you with hopes that you will champion this cause so that we may implement this plan in time to prepare for the second wave of foreclosures projected for 2009 – 2010.  </p>
<p>I have been in business since September 1981 in the areas of Real Estate, Finance, Taxes and Business Strategy along with possessing a legal background. I consistently deal with the stress and anxiety of the average American to find real, tangible, solutions. I believe that my many years of service as an expert in these areas, can be transformed into an effective initiative to tackle our current housing and employment challenges.</p>
<p>Below, please find an outline of the above mentioned plan as it relates to a national solution that will improve our uncertain economy. I am confident that this plan can be that “single solution or magic bullet” that Chairman Sheila Bair of the FDIC did not believe existed.</p>
<p>This proposal can be developed to take effect as of January 21, 2009 and will produce a comprehensive and effective business model that will:</p>
<p>Stop &#038; Prevent Foreclosure:</p>
<p>Establish eligibility of loan modification within 72 hours after a complete application has been submitted<br />Establish a safeguard procedure that will prevent the homeowner from re-entering the foreclosure process</p>
<p>Stabilize Property Values:</p>
<p>Retention of homeownership in order to prevent declining sale value <br />Reduce inventory of foreclosed properties where homeowners are in possession or retain title of ownership</p>
<p>Stimulate New Investments:</p>
<p>Develop Partnership Investments for new businesses or expansion of businesses<br />Integrate partnership with financial institutions that received a part of the 700 billon dollar bailout or any new stimulus legislation to be enacted<br />New tax structure to create incentives for high income earners above $250,000 per year.  These participants will contribute to the program which will create capital, job creation and business growth, without a tax increase</p>
<p>Solution for the Housing Crisis and Other Areas of our Economy (Continued)</p>
<p>Create Job Growth:</p>
<p>The program will match employers with employees who are enrolled<br />Current unemployed applicants will enroll into the program to qualify for employment first by the prospective employer who is a member of the partnership structure of this business model<br />The job placement program projects a minimum employment growth of 100,000 new jobs per month, 30 days after the implementation of this program</p>
<p>Create Educational Opportunities:</p>
<p>Cost associated with an unemployed applicants requiring training for employment opportunities in emerging industries will be paid by this program<br />Employers who are members shall have the option of receiving tax credits or matching funds if unemployed applicant is hired and requires additional education or training to pursue a career in an emerging industry<br />Finance, income tax and credit counseling will be required for all who enroll in this program</p>
<p>Create Accountability:</p>
<p>Each applicant and or transaction performed under this business model will be tracked and all information will be retained for accurate reporting, research, analysis and for auditing purposes</p>
<p>Restore Consumer Confidence:</p>
<p>Upon enrolling into this new program, each applicant will be issued an assigned card to be used with all purchases from merchants that are members under this new business model.  The applicant will be entitled to a ten to twenty percent discount for each transaction when using the assigned card</p>
<p>This proposal has been developed to serve as a fast-track program to create the business model the government can use for the 21st century economy that will ride on the innovation of the internet.   Please contact me as soon as possible.</p>
<p>Respectfully,</p>

<p>This proposal can be developed to take effect as of January 21, 2009 and will produce a comprehensive and effective business model that will:</p>
<p>Stop &#038; Prevent Foreclosure:</p>
<p>Establish eligibility of loan modification within 72 hours after a complete application has been submitted<br />Establish a safeguard procedure that will prevent the homeowner from re-entering the foreclosure process</p>
<p>Stabilize Property Values:</p>
<p>Retention of homeownership in order to prevent declining sale value <br />Reduce inventory of foreclosed properties where homeowners are in possession or retain title of ownership</p>
<p>Stimulate New Investments:</p>
<p>Develop Partnership Investments for new businesses or expansion of businesses<br />Integrate partnership with financial institutions that received a part of the 700 billon dollar bailout or any new stimulus legislation to be enacted<br />New tax structure to create incentives for high income earners above $250,000 per year.  These participants will contribute to the program which will create capital, job creation and business growth, without a tax increase</p>
<p>Solution for the Housing Crisis and Other Areas of our Economy (Continued)</p>
<p>Create Job Growth:</p>
<p>The program will match employers with employees who are enrolled<br />Current unemployed applicants will enroll into the program to qualify for employment first by the prospective employer who is a member of the partnership structure of this business model<br />The job placement program projects a minimum employment growth of 100,000 new jobs per month, 30 days after the implementation of this program</p>
<p>Create Educational Opportunities:</p>
<p>Cost associated with an unemployed applicants requiring training for employment opportunities in emerging industries will be paid by this program<br />Employers who are members shall have the option of receiving tax credits or matching funds if unemployed applicant is hired and requires additional education or training to pursue a career in an emerging industry<br />Finance, income tax and credit counseling will be required for all who enroll in this program</p>
<p>Create Accountability:</p>
<p>Each applicant and or transaction performed under this business model will be tracked and all information will be retained for accurate reporting, research, analysis and for auditing purposes</p>
<p> Restore Consumer Confidence:</p>
<p>Upon enrolling into this new program, each applicant will be issued an assigned card to be used with all purchases from merchants that are members under this new business model.  The applicant will be entitled to a ten to twenty percent discount for each transaction when using the assigned card</p>
<p>This proposal has been developed to serve as a fast-track program to create the business model the government can use for the 21st century economy that will ride on the innovation of the internet.   Please contact me as soon as possible.</p>
