当幸福来敲门 上集-2
51
-Yes.
-And we got the tax-bill notice today.
52
-What are you gonna do about that?
-Look, this is what we gotta do.
53
You see that car? The one
with the pretty yellow shoe on it?
54
That's mine.
55
There's no parking near hospitals.
56
That's what happens
when you're always in a rush.
57
Thanks anyway. Very much.
58
-Maybe next quarter.
-It's possible.

I needed to sell at least two scanners
a month for rent and daycare.
60
I'd have to sell one more...
61
...to pay off all of those tickets
under my windshield wiper.
62
The problem is...
63
...I haven't sold any for a while.
64
Since when do you not like
macaroni and cheese?
65
Since birth?
66
-What's that?
-What?
67
-What is this?
-It's a gift for Christopher.
68
-From who?
-Cynthia from work.
69
It's for adults. Chris can't use it.
She didn't know.
70
What are you supposed
to do with it?
71
Make every side the same color.
72
Did you pay the taxes?
73
No, I'm gonna
have to file an extension.
74
-You already filed an extension.
-Yeah, well, I gotta file another one.
75
That's-- It's $650.
I'll have it in the next month.
76
That means interest, right?
77
-And a penalty?
-Yeah, a little bit.
78
Look, why don't you let me do this?
All right, just relax. Okay?
79
-Come here. Calm down.
-I have to go back to work.
80
Let's get ready for bed.
Hey, put your plate in the sink.
81
A few days ago I was presented
with a report I'd asked for...
82
...a comprehensive audit, if you will,
of our economic condition.
83
You won't like it. I didn't like it.
84
But we have to face the truth...
85
...and then go to work
to turn things around.
86
And make no mistake about it,
we can turn them around.
87
The federal budget is out of control.
88
And we face runaway deficits
of almost $80 billion...
89
...for this budget year
that ends September 30th.
90
That deficit is larger than
the entire federal budget in 1 957.
91
And so is the almost $80 billion...
92
... we will pay in interest
this year on the national debt.
93
Twenty years ago, in 1 960...
94
...our federal government payroll
was less than $ 1 3 billion.
95
Today it is 75 billion.
96
During these 20 years, our population
has only increased by 23. 3 percent....
97
Man, I got two questions for you:
98
What do you do?
And how do you do it?
99
-I'm a stockbroker.
-Stockbroker. Oh, goodness.
100
Had to go to college
to be a stockbroker, huh?
