MC Hammer Sued By The Government For $779,585 In Back Taxes

    More than a decade after filing for bankruptcy, MC Hammer reportedly now owes the U.S. government $779,585 in back taxes and is being sued to recoup losses.

    According to TMZ, Hammer mostly owes back taxes from his “most financially troubled years” – 1996 and 1997. The government demands that any concert earnings that Hammer makes must be automatically diverted to them.

    Hammer, whose real name is Stanley Burrell, originally filed for bankruptcy in April 1996 after accruing $13 million in debt. He sold his mansion for a significantly slashed price and admitted to using up most of his $20 million fortune in 1997.

        but, i hate religous fanatics and anybody who spouts that illuminati shit deserves to be castrated so as not to infect further generations with their stupidity

    2. What about that 23.7 trillion that the Banks owe us Uncle Sam????

      The bailout was a blank check to our Federal Reserve!! Basically the key to the vault and no guards to stop them!! Check out how much money they have stolen to date.

      Hammer did support the Occupy Oakland protesters!!! This is his punishment!!!
