- 6:45What?
- 6:49That's the you can't rent a car yet tax.
- 6:53Oh, great.
- 6:53We're getting fined for not being able to do something.
- 6:57That's just brilliant.
- 6:58Yep, it is.
- 6:59Passive taxation is probably the most brilliant thing the government's ever done.
- 7:04Well, it's not that brilliant.
- 7:05We're going to be out of money soon.
- 7:06It's the only thing we're actually efficient at.
- 7:08I hear that.
- 7:09Hmm.
- 7:10Yeah.
- 7:10I'm surprised I didn't get charged for making a funny comment.
- 7:16Oh, Uncle Sam has a sense of humor about himself.
- 7:20He knows he's useless.
- 7:22So what do we do?
- 7:24This can't go on into perpetuity.
- 7:28Cha You got to be kidding me Oh that That one was actually me Oh I got charged because I let someone use the word perpetuity in my company
- 7:45We don't like that word.
- 7:48I learned it in college.
- 7:49No, I know.
- 7:50It shows a level of intelligence that we at the government do not care for.
- 7:55And that's on me.
- 7:56I was supposed to stop you from saying something smart.
- 7:59Well, thank God.
- 8:00Thank God it's your charge and not my charge.
- 8:03Listen, my wife and I, we're begging.
- 8:06What can we do to get out of this situation?
- 8:09Yeah, please, please, anything.
- 8:11We're begging you.
- 8:13Cha-ching!
- 8:15Begging's unsightly.
- 8:17You get charged for that, too.
- 8:19Is this even legal?
- 8:21Cha-ching!
- 8:22What?
- 8:23Questioning the government.
- 8:25Oh, no!
- 8:26The legal? I'm sorry, son.
- 8:28This is America.
- 8:30Oh, no.
- 8:32You don't use the full name of United States of America.
- 8:36What, I took it in vain?
- 8:37It suggests that you are friends with the country that you live in.
- 8:42Oh, this is outrageous.
- 8:43You are not friends. You do not get to nickname them.
- 8:46Okay, well, I'll tell you what.
- 8:47Here, here's a check. I just gave all my money to charity.
- 8:50What are they going to do now?
- 8:51Sorry, babe, I'm doing a thing.
- 8:53That's okay, honey, you get them.
- 8:56Now what?
- 8:57Cha-ching.
- 9:00There's no way to pee.
- 9:05That's the...
- 9:11That's the...
- 9:12Charity charge.
- 9:15That's the trying to find a loophole.
- 9:17The government caught you trying to find a loophole.
- 9:19There's no money.
- 9:20They're never going to get more money.
- 9:22I just gave it all away.
- 9:23We're poor.
- 9:24Cha-ching.
- 9:25Uh-uh.
- 9:26That's using extra consonants when you didn't need to say a word.
- 9:31That's the stuttering fee.
- 9:34Honey, I think I know what's going on here.
- 9:37Oh, well, could you explain it to me?
- 9:38Because I am flabbergasted.
- 9:40Yeah, this man made a joke earlier that I don't think is a joke.
