A Man, they take a lot of our paycheck.
嘿,他們從我們薪水里扣了不少錢。
B Yeah, the government really takes a bit, doesn't it?
是的,政府確實扣了一點,是嗎?
A Seriously. The only tax I don't mind them taking is social security. It's only a few dollars every paycheck.
認真點。只有社會保險這種稅我不介意交。每回只要從薪水里面扣除幾元錢就行了。
B Yeah, I don't mind it either. We’ll both end up rich slobs and not need it, but what if we do, you know?
是呀,我也不介意。我們最終肯定不會缺錢也不會需要它,但是如果我們有這個錢的話,你知道?
A Yeah. It won't be much, but at least we’ll have a monthly check when we get old.
是呀,雖然不多,但是起碼老了以后每個月有一個固定收入。
B Yeah, my grandmother gets by on social security and the money my grandfather invested when he was alive.
是呀,我祖母就是靠社會保險金和祖父在世時的投資生活。
A Let's just hope the politicians don't figure out a way to spend it.
讓我們巴望政治家們不會想著法子把它用掉吧。
B Really? No, they couldn't. None of them would have jobs if they did.
真的嗎?不,不會的。如果他們這樣做了,他們的工作就不保了。
