Subj: Attn Magic Johnson Basketball and the White House
Dear Magic,
I have an idea that I think you will be very much interested in. It is about President Obama and basketball
We all know that President Obama is passionate about basketball (almost as much as you and I) and would like to have full length professional basketball court at the White House. I think this will actually make him a better President.
We also know that if he gets the government to pay for it, it may cause some people to feel he is opulent or not thinking about that the government could better spend its money on helping people.
This is what I propose
You organize an NBA White House Basketball Court Fund (the NBA WHBC Fund}.
This fund would raise the entire cost to build and equip a separate structure on the White House grounds (perhaps using the existing short outside half court space). In order to make the cost fully deductible as a contribution the fund would actually make out the check to pay for it to the US Government.
The structure would contain an NBA regulation full court, some spectator stands, bathrooms, and small locker rooms with showers.
Older, but still young, retired NBA basketball players (who I would ask to contribute financially to the fund), such as MIchael Jordan and Larry Bird would form an emeritus team to occasionally play the White House Staff team. Perhaps mixing retired professional players to play on each side. We could also offer Televised videos or live with sponsors to raise money for charities. The President could invite at different times kids to watch the games. This would be goodwill all around.
The fund should get approval and possible sponsorship from the NBA.
I think that for whatever funds are needed, there are plenty of NBA players (both active and retired) who would want to contribute.
This could be a win-win for everybody - especially President "Barry" Obama!
Magic -you and I know someone in common. You remember Jersey Giant Sub Shops in Lansing - Particularly Britt Slocum. I had been back in 1995 thru 2000 their accountant. I still handle the Ken Slocum's (the father of the four Slocum brothers) personal tax returns. In 1995 in one of my visits to them, the boys and I played some pickup basketball in a Lansing gym. This is when I made a once in a life time shot. From 10 feet from half court I shot a high arcing shot that hit the rim and bounced 25 feet in the air - hit a beam and came down thru the hoop. They still talk about it in Lansing.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Dear President-Elect Obama
In light of the current Middle-East conflict in Gaza, there is a window opening for a new and different approach to resolve this Middle-East Conflict and to stop the rockets from being fired from Gaza and attacks by suicide-bombers.
I propose using the world's most powerful, but most under utilized weapon system, that has decisively defeated terrorists and insurgents every time it has been used in Iraq. This weapon system is more powerful than a B2 bomber loaded with nuclear weapons. It is how this weapon system is used may determine its success. The use of this weapons system to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian ageless conflict will take heroics, expertise, and diplomatic finesse as we are dealing with fierce enemies that have been digging two graves with every death. It can be the missing key to resolving this conflict. It will take a powerful and eloquent world leader who is willing to change world politics to successfully resolve this conflict. The timing is perfect upon your inauguration.
I have written you the President-Elect, President Bush, Congress and the media previously about this weapon system that can decisively defeat terrorists and insurgents. You have said that if someone was sending rockets at your home where your daughters were living you would do everything possible to stop this terrorist act.
To all those that think that Israel is using a disproportionate or discriminate response to Hamas, I ask them one question:
- If you lived in NY CIty or Westchester NY and Hamas was in power in Jersey City and was firing rockets indiscriminately into New York City or Westchester NY, would you be as restrained as the Israelis have been in your response, or would you want your Airforce to carpet bomb Jersey City until it had no more capacity to fire rockets ?
I sincerely hope that you will listen to this new and unique approach to resolving the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. You have personally experienced the full power of this weapon system.

Someone in the Obama Transition team must have read my blog -because they are partially stealing and using in a limited way my solutions to our nation's financial crisis.
THE OBAMA PLAN IN CONGRESS:
"Under the plan, individuals would receive up to $500 and families up to $1,000 through a cut in payroll taxes on the first $8,100 in income. The money would be delivered through paychecks as a reduction in Social Security withholdings, and is intended to bolster consumer spending by giving a small lift to household pocketbooks. "

The Theory of Tax-Enomics-Presidential Economic Solutions
For The President, the President-Elect, the Transition Team, the Congress, the Secretary of the Treasury (Present and to be) , and the Federal Reserve Chairman -UPDATED and REVISED 11/22/08The Theory of Tax-Enomics is the use of Federal, State and local tax laws to produce positive economic and social changeIMMEDIATE FINANCIAL CRISIS - RECESSION STOPPING SOLUTIONS FOR THE PRESIDENT , THE PRESIDENT-ELECT AND CONGRESS BY AN ECONOMIC STIMULUS PACKAGE WITH Specific programs WITH SELF-FINANCING SOURCES OF FUNDING TO:
1. REVERSE THE INCREASE IN UNEMPLOYMENT BY STOPPING THE LOSS OF JOBS IN THE US DUE TO THE CURRENT FINANCIAL CRISIS AND INCREASE IN ACCELERATED DEFLATION - SPECIFICALLY IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY AND IN THE HOUSING INDUSTRY.
2. PUT MONEY IMMEDIATELY IN AMERICAN TAXPAYER CONSUMER POCKETS FOR PROPER SPENDING WITH A SHORT-TERM- IMMEDIATE ECONOMIC STIMULUS PROGRAM.
FOLLOWED BY A 2YEAR LONG-TERM STIMULUS PROGRAM.
1. THE THREE MONTH FREEZE PROGRAM ON A 50% REDUCTION OF ALL Federal PAYROLL TAXES (Social Security and Medicare Tax Withheld from employees and paid as an expenses by employers) ON ALL WAGES AND SALARIES for existing employees and a SIX MONTH FREEZE under the same program for newly hired employees.
2. INCREASE FOR THE NEXT THREE MONTHS ALL STATE UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE BENEFITS.
Every person, presently on Unemployment or who goes on unemployment during the three month period, will receive 110% of the allowed benefits during this three month period.
IT DOES NOT REQUIRE THE GOVERNMENT TO ISSUE ANY NEW CHECKS.
The employers would take the deduction for both the withholding given to the employees and their expenses portion on their quarterly Fm 941.
The taxpayers who are presently on unemployment insurance benefits will receive the 10% increase directly in their existing checks. Any new taxpayers going on unemployment during this three month period would also receive 110% benefits for the remainder of the three month period. Whatever additional benefits paid out by the states, they would bill the federal government for the additional benefits paid by the states.
HOWEVER, EVERY WORKING AND NEWLY HIRED WORKING TAXPAYER WILL SEE IMMEDIATE BENEFIT. By using supply-side economics there will be no loss of tax revenue as explained below in THE THEORY of Tax-Enomics.This program is designed to put IMMEDIATELY MONEY IN THE ECONOMY AND THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER- CONSUMER WITHIN 30 DAYS OF PASSAGE BY CONGRESS. It will GIVE IMMEDIATE benefit to both the individual American Taxpayer Consumer and the American Business Taxpayer.This program could plug the hole in the dyke until other SPECIFIC programs can be put in place.The loss in tax revenue will be offset by the increase in taxpayer base as explained below in this blog on The Theory of Tax-Enomics.

Dear President-Elect Obama
If you would like to see and hear new approaches and solutions to resolve our economic crisis, by turning around our economy, we can show you how to use the Theory of Tax-Enomics, of which I am the founder and foremost authority in the country, to accomplish this We need to use the Theory of Tax-Enomics to solve our financial crisis and stimulate and expand the economy by providing five basic stimuli simultaneously(see my blog for full details):
1. Taxpayer and consumer confidence that the melt down has halted will be revitalised.
2. Taxpayer incentives that provide the Taxpayer-consumer with more disposable income, while preventing foreclosures and stabilizing the housing market.
3. Government jobs programs that include retraining individuals so they can cross train to new jobs, while receiving a living wage during retraining. Examples:
A Solar and Wind Energy WPA program
The Auto Consumer investment Tax Credit Program for energy efficient vehicles.
4. Government must be the immediate consumer of sufficient goods and services that businesses will rehire or create new jobs to produce the increased supply, while government is providing the supported demand for these goods and services. Example – Government purchase of US made Energy Efficient Economically viable vehicles.
5. Government thru the Federal Reserve must establish a Federal Lending Authority and Federal Vehicle Authority that will function like the FDIC and the FHA. By guaranteeing bank loans with a small insurance premium, businesses and individuals will be able to get the necessary credit that is needed in our economy.
. The stimulus must be geared to give the taxpayer worker more disposable spendable income and it should be tied to the creation of private sector jobs. One key is the revision and immediate reduction of the graduated downward tax – the Social Security Payroll tax, offset by removal of the cap on earnings it is subject to.
Example: Reduce the Social Security rate to 2.50% on the first $200,000 and then to 3.25% on excess over $200,000 with no top cap for employer and employee. Now we have room for a 1.45% Basic Health Care Tax with no cap for both employee and employer that will work like Medicare. Companies will only need then to offer a medi-gap policy to their employees if they want to or can. This solves a lot of problems and will be self financing. More power for the congressional financial buck spent.
