A Man, they take a lot of our paycheck.

嘿，他们从我们薪水里扣了不少钱。

B Yeah, the government really takes a bit, doesn't it?

是的，政府确实扣了一点，是吗?

A Seriously. The only tax I don't mind them taking is social security. It's only a few dollars every paycheck.

认真点。只有社会保险这种税我不介意交。每回只要从薪水里面扣除几元钱就行了。

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。我们最终肯定不会缺钱也不会需要它，但是如果我们有这个钱的话，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，虽然不多，但是起码老了以后每个月有一个固定收入。

B Yeah, my grandmother gets by on social security and the money my grandfather invested when he was alive.

是呀，我祖母就是靠社会保险金和祖父在世时的投资生活。

A Let's just hope the politicians don't figure out a way to spend it.

让我们巴望政治家们不会想着法子把它用掉吧。

B Really? No, they couldn't. None of them would have jobs if they did.

真的吗?不，不会的。如果他们这样做了，他们的工作就不保了。
