How did the 2004 Job Creation Act change the powerful multinational and manufacturing company to become a focal player in high quality job creation? How does our nation start with new inputs to the urban public schools so new outcomes can be expected?

How can you help now that your traditional before the cash infusion role has expired?
Providing citizens good jobs and developed opportunity when and if it all comes together in the USA is hurting the middle needed for the base economy.

Measured against the general practice of high quality, doing first things first, right the first time, one size fits one could leave a conclusion that few are making the 2004 Job Creation Act a real opportunity. The private sector focus of keeping 100% of the kids in the high quality game, and providing a high quality job opportunity after that; is now emerging as the first thing to do to protect the local areas ability to grow and be secure. This is a NEW MARKET for everything urban if we can just monetize the ROI from ready to read before kindergarten so that a payback from the public sector is possible. (This would be new)

• Everyone knows more rigor and commitment is needed to deliver 100% of a local population to kindergarten ready to read.
• We know that it is pay earlier now or pay more later.
• We also know there is a substantial sensitive period to learning language at age 3-6 that could change the lives of our most at risk.
• Child care can mean early reading skills delivered but often does not.
• 50% of our children arrive at kindergarten already behind.
• The system is generally strong enough to recover the top half of those behind.
• The system is out of growth money.
• The yield of those highly educated and motivated is too low for our growth rate.
• Kids drop out mentally, some as soon as the 4th grade.
• A dropout can be predicted after kindergarten.

We believe you will be interested in positioning a small investment, a loan, using your repatriated earnings. Your loans are paid back because the payback is contracted and managed by returning veterans. The veteran could be positioned by the leadership of the multinationals in the syndication of the investment risk and the payback from the contracted ROI by the school, city and county. Everybody needs each other in this win-win. This Contracted ROI Program will stand on its own economically so it could spread with SBA money just as fast as professional veterans can get up to speed on the leadership of the collaborative and early reading requirements.

Incomplete list of reasons to invest with rigor and commitment:

• Create high value jobs and a changed education proficiency in the USA.
• A classical change the input solution without pain because the gap is a void.
• Engage returning veterans, with the banner they have earned, in a very meaningful opportunity for the next 20-30 years.
• Encourage and help the public and public education address and project the important language learning sensitivity period before the children fall behind.
• Advantage the USA with integrity and fairness and an even start to the top in our urban communities.
• Be defined as the local ethic and demonstration to the new flat new world opportunity that also exists locally and then again internationally.

Please, use a minor portion of your repatriated earnings, please make a WHAT IF commitment (led and managed by professional returning veterans via a loan contract). Commit to the local public sector to fund the delivery of the most at risk kids to kindergarten ready to read, count and understand positive direction, choices and opportunity. ONLY IF, they agree to pay you back from the ROI. It breaks down locally to be $300,000 per 100 children per year for two years ($600,000 per 100 children).

This investment is a discretionary and “above the law” use of a very small portion of the money repatriated by the 2004 Job Creation Act, or the tax reduction from the 2004 Producer’s Tax Deduction. How you present this money that you received is very important. Inputting into the social system the returning veteran’s special banner of “Literacy is Freedom and the Agenda of Opportunity” is important to every urban community that is stuck with the gap.

If not now, when? If not this, what? For a school district that has 100 children starting in kindergarten each year the draft contract suggests there is roughly a $2,000,000 investment over 4 years in the kids and their caregivers at the most local level before a dollar is paid back by the school. What districts will say no to this? This new design is ready for a test. A start-up.

Please, let me send you the introductory package to this new design.

Sincerely

Thomas D. Wolfgram
President USA VALUES, Inc.
