Damn, crazy how many people decided to take advantage of that program after the federal government publicly announced it had no intention to oversee applications or review recipients

They did not publicly announce no oversight. It’s very clear in all the paperwork that there would be verification. I took care of it for my husbands business. Some people are just dumb and think they can get away with anything.

The PPP loan program was a "Full employment for Federal Prosecutors forever Act."

I just met him yesterday at a comic con. He was kind and we talked briefly about JDF.

Another Red "wild force" power ranger was convicted of murdering his roommate with a sword.

​

A no-name extra on the Power Rangers brutally murdered a couple so he could steal their money and their boat. He tied them to a boat anchor and tossed them into the ocean to drown.

edit: As I read the article, I see that it's not confirmed he/she was on Power Rangers, even as an unamed extra kid.

I mean all of PPP was fraud. It seems strange to see this guy to go to jail when my unaffected accountant got $1.5 mil and the local country club owned by a guy who has $50 mil got $1 mil and had a record year.

It’s the difference between Edgelord definitions of fraud (the whole system is a fraud, man!) vs actual PPP loan fraud (why yes, USA… I really own a company with 20 employees. Please give me 6 months of 20 employees salaries which I must prove went towards salary)

How did the country club owner earn his $50 million?

Ty, I was wondering if it’s the guy from our town who had to buy a country club because the country clubs around here wouldn’t ask him to join, but different guy

Wasn't he also a gay adult star for a while after getting out of power rangers? Or was that one of those weird international rumours of the internet early days?

I've never understood the whole "obtaining loans fraudulently" thing. How do you benefit? Don't you have to pay them back? Do people figure they can invest the money and make more than the interest they're paying? Has that ever actually happened?

PPP Loans were largely forgiven if the money was used for payroll, I believe.

HPmoni t1_ixdpmdw wrote

Criminals are short sighted.

But yeah. A smart person can turn a million into$1.1 million in a few months.

The loans later became grants.

didn't one of them actually kill someone with his girlfriend? I recall he met up with them to 'buy a boat' and threw the couple that owned it overboard in the middle of the ocean.

It seems a few of the power rangers have had a hard life

You should specify that this is the original Red Ranger. There have been several (RIP JDF).

Anyone 'member the Power Ranger who killed two people, then tried to castrate himself while awaiting trial? No? Just me?

That was a cursed show.

I always thought Tommy was a better leader for the Rangers. And when he got the golden shield, oh my God. That was so cool.

Weird take. Implying that fraud is a crime worthy of death is pretty shit, man. It’s not like JDF was some angel. Read the comments and you’ll find plenty of stories of him doing worse than this.

Is this the power ranger that just killed himself?
