Don't cheat the feds!

https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2020/08/04/houston-entrepreneur-spent-16m-in-covid-19-relief-funds-on-lamborghini-strip-clubs-prosecutors/

So, this guy put in a bunch of false requests for Covid payroll aid for multiple companies. Two were approved for a total of $1.6 million. The guy then used the money to buy a Lambo SUV and a bunch of other stuff.

The main reason that I'm posting this is that 4-5 times in the last couple of months we've had a new Lambo SUV parked in our guest parking. I ran into the guy just arriving one day and road up the elevator with him and the person that he was visiting. I'm about 95% sure that it's the same guy.

Seriously, all of that money and what you buy is...

Lots of this happened while honest businesses got nothing. May go down as the largest boondoggle in history.

Sure, he spent some money on frivolous purchases.
But did anyone commend him on keeping single mothers employed?
