It's a criminal act, Harry!
1:06:12
What criminal act, Phil?
To keep people working?
1:06:15
That's what you yourself said
this morning, isn't it?
1:06:18
Is it a criminal act to try to hang on
to 15 years of hard work?
1:06:22
What the hell was our dream?
1:06:25
To meet a payroll and not a pay check.
Wasn't that the dream?
1:06:28
That was the big slice of the pie.
1:06:34
Everybody in this whole God damn
country dances around the law, Phil.
1:06:38
- Now what's a criminal act? You tell me.
- So the end justifies the means.
1:06:43
Well, that's what they got
up on the scoreboard, baby.
1:06:45
- That's the way they play it.
- Who's "they?" We're "they."
1:06:48
- And there are rules.
- Wrong.
1:06:51
Used to be.
1:06:53
No more rules, just referees.
1:06:55
And no room out there for losers,
believe me.
1:06:58
You and me out on that street again?
Why, Christ! What would we do?
1:07:01
Where would we go?
We're obsolete. You want logic, Phil.
1:07:05
And there is no Ministry of Logic,
in this country.
1:07:08
Performance used to count, right?
1:07:11
For 15 years we've met our obligations
with the same unions...
1:07:14
the same mills, the same bank, but today...
1:07:16
all they care about is the bottom line
on a passbook...
1:07:19
and then some God damn machine
gives you a bum credit rating.
1:07:23
So history doesn't count anymore.
1:07:30
It's our place, Phil, we don't get down
on our knees to anybody.
1:07:33
You expect me to buy that crap?
1:07:35
For Christ's sakes, Harry,
don't you understand?
1:07:38
It's people like us, people in
the middle, that made this country work.
1:07:41
And when people like ourselves
get into this kind of thing...
1:07:45
it takes it all down.
That's what's ripping the country apart!
1:07:48
Son of a bitch,
don't you sell America, to me!
1:07:50
I've got friends over there sitting under
the sand with bikinis on their heads!
