it was for the contractors for those like lighting. but there was nothing that said they have to spent it that way so through loop holes the rich and famous could legally use it to pay themselves. like the money i lent bill hemmer for his hernia operation and instead he got press conference implants. more than 200 million bucks was shelled out spread across singers like post malone, chris brown, even nickelback. well, in nickelback s case it was considered a gift in exchange for them not playing. post malone and chris brown received the maximum of ten million each. on the bright side, post malone spent some of it on soap. country singer lee ann rhymes spent two million. but no indication these payments broke the law and for all we know the artists could have used the cash to keep the workers afloat. because what we would do in society without the great people
if it s going to the crew that s easy because the people that work would come forward and say nope, i was taken care of. but if they say, no, we can t talk about it they probably gave them the bare minimum and pocketed the rest. unfortunately that has become the american way under this administration. if it was just the music industry that robbed us it would be fine but it wasn t that it was everybody. people who didn t even have jobs who lived in apartments literally all of a sudden had 16 businesses and each one got $200,000. like the system went out and you know that because it was a super left progressive, they made sure all their people got taken cavare, all their families, like we have learned thanks to the transparency of the previous administration we re seeing now. it sucks. nickelback should at least have the graciousness to change their name to a hundred back. clearly you get $10 million you re a long way from nickelback. greg: true.

what if kat you were a contractor, just saw this story and said wait a second, i did a lot of work for chris brown, i didn t see a dime. what do you do kat: forget that. imagine being in prison for tax fraud and seeing this story. greg: that s true kat: you re like go to prison for not paying your taxes and you re like, oh, you needed to pay nickelback? i would be oh, man, i would be even more pissed than you already would be because you re probably pissed if you re in prison. but the government is so mans mitt that it s this patriotic thing to pay your fair share of taxs the. there s no fair share of my money and especially when it s going towards stuff like wars and nickelback. greg: i think nickelback gets a bad rap. i think of the three of them i would be more pissed about chris brown but kat: yeah, not a good guy. greg: no, he s not at all. kayleigh, you are a lawyer so i have legal questions four. kayleigh: oh, all right. greg: so this is dated from i m kidd
