PPP loans were the ones given out to businesses during covid in order to help them pay their employees while they couldn't work or something along those lines. I think if you used the funds in a certain way then they would be forgiven.

There is certainly a big difference when the government shuts your business down then tries to bribe you with PPP loans, then use that as their "I got you moment". Businesses didn't ask to be shut down, they were forced to. Of course everyone will take the money.
