Man, they take a lot of our paycheck.

嘿，他们从我的薪水里扣了不少钱哦。

Yeah, the government really takes a bite, doesn’t it?

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

当然。只有社会保险这种税我不介意上交。每回只要从薪水里面扣除几元钱。

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？

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，但是最少老了以后每个月有一个固定收入。

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

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。
