During the hearing, Lauryn defended her mounting tax debt by saying;

"I was put into a system I didn't know the nature of. ... I'm a child of former slaves. I got into an economic paradigm and had that imposed on me." I sold 50 million units ... now I'm up here paying a tax debt. If that's not likened to slavery, I don't know what is."
