BP Settlement Proposal

December 1, 2016

Dear Mississippi Government:

I am so grateful to the Mississippi government that made my education in Mississippi affordable and superior to any Ivy league school when it comes to tourism marketing, management and economic development. After returning from USM’s Austrian and British Studies Abroad in 1990, other students flocked to my desk in the library to better understand the world of marketing management. By hiring a new tourism company listed on the Budapest Stock Exchange for 6 months, growing from $3 to $77 per share, I learned a great deal about the economic benefits of the sharing of a community’s wealth with the stranger/tourist in Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Dresden, E. and W. Berlin 1990 (as the Wall fell). Note: Hungary is a new, free and Non-Rothschild Banking country.

Under a blooming cherry tree, among 7 other students, I learned from a Parliamentarian and the founder of the Green Party while she ran for President of Austria; The Sr. VP of Austrian Bank taught me how to recognize money laundering, post Reaganomics; In E. Europe I learned the economic promise of freedom from control of the market by a communist government and the long term mental depression they were overcoming from the suppression of freedom. I now look back and ask with such disdain, “Have I ever experienced freedom in Mississippi in my 52 years? What are the values of my political party? Does the other party have better morals?

In London, BP’s International Marketing VP and consultant to Royal Dutch Shell, Ray G. Wiltshire, taught me how to think marketing and world affairs only one month before the dissolving of the Seven Sisters beginning with IRS vs. Gulf Oil, Co. because they owned more real estate assets than petroleum claims on their properties. This included $$ Billions of dollars in tourism, commercial and residential real estate in Mobile, Baldwin, and Escambia counties as well as national chain hotels in Mississippi, managed by foreigners of the state, undermining the concept of hospitality from locals. British Petroleum acquired all the land developed and to be developed, associated with the petroleum marketing strategies related in Mississippi and abroad, as America seems powerless to defend against this colonizing of America, as our downtown becomes abandoned, and unemployment is rampant. Travelers maximize gasoline expenses in our market and refuse to walk the downtown anymore.

Since 1963, Holiday Inn partnered with Gulf Oil to colonize up and coming interstates to mass market transportation by travelers by placing brochure racks from AL and FL in the MS hotels they own since 1967, under the name Gulf Shores, Inc., they raped millions of travelers from enjoyment of the State of Mississippi and destroyed all efforts of hospitality by locals, as our horrible international reputation continues to make first impressions of the people of Mississippi who are traveling to other places.

In 1979, the year of Hurricane Frederic, Mississippi created its first tourism tax and worked to cover up the dysfunction as petroleum banks, national chains, and beverage companies maximized profits and served on tourism boards, in the poorest, most obese and most corrupt state in America, while entrepreneurs went crazy trying to figure out how to capitalize in the tourism market, with this false stimulant in place, constantly making random and unintelligent decisions for the people that voted for the future of their children. While I saved more money selling Nelson Bibles in the Carolinas in summers of 1989 or 1991 than ever working a year in Mississippi as a leader that developed commerce to downtown Pass Christian since 3/94, Bay St. Louis and Ocean Springs in 10/1996; hired by Gulfport in 7/05, it seems quite evident that the voters in Mississippi don’t read the Holy Bible or have knowledge of how Jesus rescued Mathew from a tax station that only taxed tourists in chapter 9. In Chapter 10, Jesus promised his disciples God’s wrath “Worse than Sodom and Gomorrah” for in-hospitality. As my elected officials, did anybody other than me tell you that voting to make tourism taxes permanent in 2005 was inherently evil and unjustified, the year of Hurricane Katrina.
With the only state in the South losing population under your care, do you think keeping the tourism taxes is tolerable by the voters? I have written a book ready for publish at any time that details the misbehavior and wrong decisions made against the traveler, before and after Katrina. Since the politicians in Jackson do not research the tax records of my clients before and after my company is hired, they remain uninformed by self serving bureaucrats that lie to the public officials and public with great deception of whose responsible for the economic ups and downs. Please go to www.mgctourism.com or www.tourismguru.blogspot.com “Where were they thinking” or “Downtown Development School is Now Open” (dated 2 weeks before Katrina) to know we can fix this problem.

The Mississippi Gulf Coast tourism leaders, including the Gaming Board, did not make any friends with Donald Trump, by refusing his capitalistic venture that promised direct cooperation with my business and all of my clients in four downtown communities, just as Grand Casinos had employed my concierge desk displays to sell local hospitality. At the same time, they welcomed Lee Iococa and his backing. Currently, IP and Silver Slipper are the only two casinos that offer any hospitality, like a brochure rack in their hotel lobby to show any value to the living in South Mississippi. Unless this whole fiasco is a money laundering operation in Mississippi, who only taxes the gaming revenues 7%, while Louisiana taxes 18%, this behavior by our casino hotels is a planned forcing of poverty on us all. Is it just coincidence, or biblical justice, that the stockholders of MS Greatest Gaming success/true hospitality story, GRAND was bought out be a foreign company before God’s wrath. Unlike most local casinos, Trump wanted windows to view the coast and a LOCAL brochure rack to support the local economy!


Proposal
1. Pass a law that stops petroleum owned, foreign and domestic, accommodation in the RV, Hotel, Motel from hosing Mississippi guests.

2. Eliminate all accommodations taxes. Any tax on tourists will be also made on locals and voted in by locals. Make this law.

3. Award Tourism Business Solutions $6,000,000 for Mississippi Gulf Coast and $20,000,000 to set up the communities Throughout the State with downtown redevelopment, as I can produce testimony of my past. Spend the rest rewarding grants for college to students with no discrimination bias features, except grades.

Thank you for your consideration.
