古罗马的生活
罗马是古代世界 Narrator: Rome was the largest and the most beautiful city
最大最美的城市 of the ancient world.
然而 宏伟其外 The magnificent facade of the empire, however,
衰落其中 could not conceal the seeds of decay,
经济不健康地依赖奴隶 the unhealthy dependence of the economy on slaves,
贫富分化严重 the disparity between rich and poor.
罗马广场异彩纷呈的背后 Behind the splendor of the Forum
是大片拥挤的贫民区 were vast areas of crowded slums.
因这里工作稀缺 无才无能者更是找不到工作 Escape from the slums was difficult for there were few jobs available
所以摆脱贫民区困难非凡 and practically none for the unskilled.
为使无所事事的人民尽情享乐 不鲁莽行事 To keep idle citizens entertained and out of mischief,
政府频繁用公费举行活动和演出 frequent games and spectacles were held at public expense.
最初 只可进行战车比赛 At first, only chariot races were sponsored.
可到图拉真(罗马皇帝)统治时期 But by the reign of Trajan,
残忍致死的格斗风靡一时 brutal combat to the death had become popular.
在罗马史早期 Earlier in Rome's history,
当选代表行使权利 elected representatives exercised the power.
可如今 政府的各项职能 But by now, every function of government
都被皇帝所掌握 had been absorbed by the emperor
他凌驾于法律之上 实行专政 who was above the law and ruled by decree.
罗马人如此文明开化 That a people as civilized as the Romans,
又制定了有史以来最人性化的法律 with the most humane system of law ever devised,
然而他们竟可以容忍虐人 could tolerate the violation of human beings
这真令人震惊 is astonishing.
这种失衡及政府工作人员的失职 This imbalance and the irresponsible behavior
无疑是罗马最终衰败的 of public officials would become major reasons
主要原因 for Rome's eventual decline.
剧终
不知道未来的人们会怎么看待我们的社会 Michael Moore: I wonder how future civilizations will view our society.
他们会以此评判我们吗? Will they judge us by this?
☆他是只猫 在冲厕所...☆ (mews)

- 我们是治安官 - 对 我们知道 - Sheriff's office. - Robert: Yeah, we know.
- 好了 请你们所有人出屋 - 好吧 - Okay, y'all have to come out, please. - Robert: All right.
我们不能做这样的反应... 觉得这些都还好了 Woman: We cannot act like this-- this is just something that's okay.
我们都是第一次经历这些 And so this is new.
他们在将住户逐出门外 They've never come out and boarded up our house
把他们的家具扔进垃圾箱内后 after they've evicted the person
从外面把屋子封好 and threw their furniture in the dumpster.
他们总是告诉我们 So they're letting us know
他们在加快速度 that they are stepping it up,
封某人的房子 都是屁话 boarding up somebody's house.
我们全家一直住在这里 这是我父母的房子 This has been my family home. This is my parents' house.
我住在这里有41年了 I've lived here for 41 years.
这是我唯一真正居住过的家 This is the only home I've ever really lived in.
这是唯一... 不论发生什么 这里永远都是我的家 This is the only-- this will always be home to me, no matter what.
- 我是个木匠 - 就这样吧 - I'm a carpenter. - Woman: There you go.
Sandra 他们要走了 让他们走吧 Man #1: Sandra, they're leaving. Let them leave.
- 我是个木匠 那又怎样? - 我就是干这个的 - Man #2: I'm a carpenter. So what? - That's all I am.
如果人们交房租 就不会被驱逐了
- 人们交房租的 - 这事也可能发生在你身上 - Well, people pay their bills. - This could happen to you.
对 那你觉得我为什么还要驱逐你们呢? Carpenter: That's right. So why do you think I'm doing it?
我并不喜欢这样 可这是我的工作 I don't have to be happy about this, but that's what I do.
我想说的是 或许你可以另做选择 Sandra: That's all I'm saying is that maybe you can make another choice.
- 我就想说这个 - 这里的人不必... - That's all we're saying. - That's no reason for...
你是工人阶级 Sandra: You're a working-class person.
...这里的人都很不安 都几乎受伤 ...people here to get upset and almost get themselves hurt.
我们不会受伤的 We ain't gonna get hurt.
你在威胁我们吗? Are you threatening us?
你们赶紧离开这儿吧 你们才可能最终受伤 Y'all gonna get on out of here. You might end up even getting hurt.
还说我们会受伤 你们才会呢 Talking about us getting hurt, you might get hurt.
在一无所有的人 Man: There's gonna be some kind of a rebellion

皮奥里亚 伊利诺伊州
我们得把东西搬走 收拾好行李 We gotta get this stuff out of the house and packed up
大约30天内搬离这里 and be out of here in about 30 days
尽管我们无处可去 even though we don't have a place to go.
哦 Oh.
这房子是我们设计的 Woman: We designed this house.
脚下的土地就是我家的农场 The property that it's on was my family farm.
所以我就这样失去了我的一份遗产 So I've lost a piece of my heritage with this.
你们为什么要这样对待辛勤工作的人们? Why do you do this to the hard-working people?
你们为什么拿走了一切? Why do you take everything?
你们夺取了他们的一切 You take everything away from them.
我们不过是中产阶级 辛勤工作 We're just middle-class, hard-working people
设法谋生 trying to make a living.
只是设法生存下去 别无他求 Just trying to survive.
An old Browning.
我的手枪 (grunts) My pistol,
我爸的手枪 我的手枪 my dad's pistol, my pistol.
(sighs)
治安局 - (knocking) - Man: Sheriff's department.
不是说给我们30天吗 It's supposed to be 30 days.
我有30天时间搬出我的东西 I got 30 days to get my stuff out.
- 那人是这样告诉我的 - 不 - That's what the guy told me. - No.
什么? What?
目前定在今天了 It's currently scheduled for today.
可是... But...
驱逐令上说我们须在今天上午9点 The paper's telling us that we are due
在这里驱逐住户 to do an eviction here today at 9:00 AM.
哼 该死的 Huh, shoot.
他也很惊讶 Well, he's surprised too.
房子没了 The house is gone.
那警察跟我说 That cop told me that the house
房子已经卖给别人了 has already been sold to somebody else.
所以我们不再拥有这座房子 拥有权属于别人 So we don't own the house no more, somebody else does.
这就是资本主义 Moore: This is capitalism,
获取与给予的系统... a system of taking and giving--
以获取为主 mostly taking.
我们唯一不知道的是 The only thing we didn't know
人们何时会开始反抗 was when the revolt would begin.
一切 我们已想尽一切办法... Man: Everything, we've tried everything...
除抢劫银行以外 except robbing a bank.
我想我或许会那样做 I'm thinking about maybe doing that.
那是人们拿回钱的一种方式 You know, that's one way somebody could get their money back.
如果他们这样... 这样对我 If they did it-- they did it to me,
我又何尝不能以牙还牙 I don't know why I can't do it to them.
这是我第2辆现代索纳塔 Peter Zalewski: This is my second Hyundai Sonata.
我可能明年再买辆新车 I'll probably get a new car next year.
可能又会是辆索纳塔 And when I do, it'll probably be another Sonata.
我不是个车迷 You know, I'm not a car guy.
如果我可以进那里偷个公寓 If I can go in there and steal a condo
公寓的价格与一辆奔驰或宾利车价位相同 for the equivalent of what a Mercedes would cost
我绝对会行动 or a Bentley would cost, I'm all about that.
认识下Peter Zalewski Moore: Meet Peter Zalewski,
佛罗里达州崭露头角的房地产天才 Florida's up-and-coming real estate whiz.
我们走 Here we go.
他把其房地产公司命名为"公寓秃鹰" Moore: He calls his real estate company Condo Vultures.
我们这标识不错 (stuttering) We have a very good sign.
这里写着最终驱逐令 You have the final notice of eviction.
你可以看到这人基本上是 So you can see this person was basically thrown out
被警察部门撵出门外的 by the police department.
欢迎 Welcome.
Peter专门接待 Moore: Peter deals exclusively
购买止赎房的客户 with clients who buy up foreclosed homes
然后转卖 从中获利 and then resell them at a profit.
这大约有830平方英尺... It's gonna be about 830 square feet or so...
最终 唯一的购买者 At the end of the day, the only people who are buying
主要是... are primarily individuals that we represent...
今日它在市场上售价6.6万美元 Today it's on the market for $66,000.
走近那里的主要是社会的寄生虫 ...which are basically bottom feeders who are going in there.
他们毫无怜悯之心 没有敏感性 They have no compassion, no sensitivity.
他们腰缠万贯 挥金如土 They're running purely off numbers They're coming in all cash,
不论出售者的境况如何 and they're looking to slit any single seller's throat
都欲置之于死地 regardless of what their situation is.
人们总问 "美元价格多少?" So people always ask, "What's 25cents on the dollar?"
就是这样 这是你们将得到的房子 This is it. This is what you're gonna get.
秃鹰基本代表了善后的 The vulture basically represents a bottom feeder
社会寄生虫 that goes in there and cleans off a carcass.
由于外部情况复杂多变 他们要应对各类状况 Because they're dealing with so many different germs and situations,
一旦自己无法处理 they'll have to vomit on themselves and there's some sort
就需要别人插手 of cleansing process that occurs.
秃鹰们并不是在屠杀他物 The vultures aren't actually killing,
它们只是在进行清洁 they're the ones doing the clean-up.
你想要查哪家银行? 美国银行? Which bank you want? Bank of America?
我们要做的是输入数据... What we do is we tap into data...
然后回车 瞧 and boom, voila.
美国银行有3400项赎回权待行使 Here we got 3,400 foreclosing by Bank of America.
太好了 Gotta love it.
收集到这些数据 As we collect data, it's giving us
我们就可以了解业内情况 the insight into the battlefield,
就像飞在阿富汗 巴基斯坦 伊拉克战场上空 almost like a drone that flies over the battleground in Afghanistan
侦察的无人机一样 or in Pakistan or in Iraq.
现在要价355 The current asking price is 355.
曾以840成交 Again, it was purchased for 840.
有一些折扣 你将会有... A little bit of a discount. You're gonna have 2...
我们就是靠这些数据 Our people are using that data to be able to go in
才能合理合法地获取土地 and try to steal properties, legally and ethically,
不过 我们只出最低价 but take them at the bare-bone bottom price.
重要的是先下手为强 It's all about taking right now.
看那个... 看那屋顶... 完全不见了 Look at the-- look at the roof-- completely gone and missing.
我们有五年没遇上台风了 We haven't had a hurricane in 5 years.
(laughing)
欢迎来到房屋大碰撞 重温迈阿密风云 Welcome to the housing crash, Miami style.
这就是... 这就是资本主义 So this-- this is what capitalism is
这就是信息如此重要的原因 and this is why the information is so critical.
我们进入市场 提醒他们 We go in there, we alert them to it,
如果他们喜欢 你知道... and if they like it, you know--
(imitates shotgun)
- 看那个窗子 - 瞧瞧 - Look at the window. - Look at that.
好像隔壁的房子曾经起过火 Looks like the house next door was on fire.
这是真正的资本主义 This is straight up capitalism.
- 火灾 - 我怀疑里面是不是真的住过人... - Fire damage. - I wonder if somebody was living there...
大家都蠢蠢欲动 Zalewski: Everybody's got this desire to go in there
想从他人的不幸中获利 and take advantage of others' misfortunes.
有人问我 Somebody asked me,
"你和真的秃鹰有什么区别?" "What's the difference between you and a real vulture?"
我说 "很简单 我从不主动吐出吃的东西" I said, "It's very simple. I don't vomit on myself."
我们今天的话题是: 什么是资本主义? Our topic today: What is capitalism?
资本主义? Capitalism?
为什么会存在这样的问题? Well, why should there be any question about it?
不是它让我们拥有世界上最高的生活水平么? Hasn't it given us the highest standard of living in the world?
我们或投资获利 或勉强度日 We're free to try to make a profit,
或一贫如洗 这都由自己决定 to just get by, or to fail.
这就是资本主义: That's what capitalism is:
一个自由经营的体制 a system of free enterprise.
那告诉我们什么是"自由经营" Now tell us what "free enterprise" means.
我有一次拜访我的朋友Wally Shawn Moore: I went to see my friend Wally Shawn,
一个剧作家 有时候兼职演员 a playwright and sometimes actor.
难以置信! Inconceivable!
但是Wally同时还研究历史和政治 Moore: But Wally also studied history and politics
还会一点基础经济学 and even a little elementary economics.
自由经营只是一个术语 Free enterprise is a form of words
它意图让你幻想出 that is intended to conjure up in your mind
一个商铺林立的小镇 a little town with different shops.
其中店开得最好的人 And the guy who runs the best shop
拥有最多的顾客 has the most customers.
资本主义体制的基础就是: Narrator: There is the basis of the capitalistic system:
利益刺激 the profit motive.
经商是为了赚钱 He's in business to make money.
资本主义运行的基本规律 Shawn: The original theory of capitalism
就是: is that it's a very clever way
根据社会需求 of society voting on what goods
决定生产 it wants made.
你用这个做什么? What do you use this for?
这是... 我可以用它做任何事 That's-- I could use that for practically everything I ever do.
你知道 社会自己来决定 You know, society votes.
他们喜欢这个家伙 They like the way this guy
做的冰淇淋 makes ice cream.
但是另外一个人 But the other guy,
做的冰淇淋 社会不喜欢 they don't like his ice cream that much
也不买 所以它就退出市场了 and they don't buy it, so it fades out.
我来付钱 这个很适合 It's on me. That is a good fit.
生活的基本法则就是 如果你有资本 Shawn: The basic law of life is that if you have things,
你就可以轻松地得到更多 you can easily get more things.
很快 一个人可以赚的 Very quickly, one guy can have
比其他人的五倍还多 5 times more than anybody else.
- 自由经营 - 竞争 - Free enterprise. - Competition.
利益刺激 Woman: The profit motive.
我父亲 一个通用汽车流水线的工人 Moore: My dad, an assembly-line worker at General Motors,
在我幼儿园毕业前 bought and paid for our house
给家里买了房子 before I graduated from kindergarten.
我们每三年就换一辆新车 We had a new car every 3 years.
每个暑假我们都会去纽约 We went to New York every other summer.
那是我在华尔街照的 That's me on Wall Street.
那是我在万国博览会 And that's me directing my first movie
导演我的第一部电影 at the World's Fair.
我们上天主教的学校 生活安逸 We went to Catholic schools, we lived a good life.
如果这就是资本主义 我喜欢... If this was capitalism, I loved it...
每个人都喜欢 and so did everyone else.
这些人来 很多人都富有起来 During these years a lot of people got rich
同时他们还必须忍受高达90%的税率 and they had to pay a top tax rate of 90%.
90%吗? 90%?
是啊 Yep.
但是他们还是住在像Bogie和Bacall一类的地方 But they still got to live like Bogie and Bacall.
而我们用他们的钱做什么呢? And what did we do with all their money?
我们修水利 建桥梁 We built damns, bridges,
建公路 学校 医院 interstate highways, schools, hospitals.
我们甚至还送了个人上月球 We even sent a guy to the moon.
事情看上去像在往好的方向发展 Things seemed to be going in the right direction.
爸爸有个稳定的工作 妈妈可以自愿 Dad had a secure job and Mom could work
去工作 不是非要工作 if she wanted, but didn't have to.
中产阶级家庭只需要一份收入就可以生存 Middle-class families only needed one income to survive.
我们家有免费的医疗和免费的牙医 Our union family had free health care and free dental.
孩子们不用贷款就可以上大学 The kids could go to college without getting a loan from a bank.
每个夏天 父亲都有四个星期的带薪休假 Dad had 4 weeks paid vacation every summer.
大部分人都有些储蓄 没有债务 Most people had a savings account and little debt.
父亲的养老金也被管理得很好 没有人能挪用 And Dad's pension was set aside where no one could touch it.
等他退休的时候就能给他 It would be there for him when he retired.
我们有这些 因为我们主要的行业竞争 We got all of this because our main industrial competition
显著减小 had been reduced to rubble.
这是德国的汽车行业状况 Here's what the German car industry looked like.
这是日本的汽车行业状况 And here's the Japanese auto industry.
我猜你会说 没有竞争的时候 I guess you could say it's easy to be number one
当第一名很简单 when you have no competition.
当然 并非事事完美 Yes, of course not everything was perfect.
我们不介意国家 We didn't mind having to put up
搞一搞战争导弹一类的东西... with a little bit of this and a little bit of that...
只要我们能继续做中产阶级 just as long as we could be middle-class.
同时我们还可以 指望后代能比我们过得更好 And we could count on our kids having it better than we had it.
这听上去很不错 It sounded like a good deal to us.
资本主义... 其优势体现得淋漓尽致 Capitalism-- no one ever had it so good.
然而 正当我们沉浸在 And then, right when we were in the middle
对资本主义的幻想当中... of this big love affair with capitalism...
现在您收看的是ABC新闻现场报道 Announcer: The ABC Sunday Night Movie "The Gambler"
之后将为您播放 will continue in its entirety
星期天晚间电影 "赌徒" following this live report from ABC News.
我们处在历史的转折点上 We are at a turning point in our history.
Debbie Downer出现了 Moore: Along came Debbie Downer.
很多人渐渐开始 Too many of us now tend to worship
放纵和挥霍 self-indulgence and consumption.
人们的身份不再由 Human identity is no longer defined
他做了什么而决定 by what one does,
而是由他拥有什么而决定 but by what one owns.
这不再能给我们 This is not a message
幸福感或安全感 of happiness or reassurance,
但是这是事实 but it is the truth
也是个警告 and it is a warning.
噢 太扫兴了 Moore: Wow, what a bummer.
是时候推选城市的新行政官了... It was time to bring a new sheriff to town...
(horse whinnies)
一个懂得怎么表现得像总统的人 ...one who knew how to act like a president.
他懂得怎么应付想涨工资的工人 He knew how to handle workers who wanted a better wage.
(gunshot)
好吧 先生 你赢了 All right, mister, I guess you win.
还有这些烦人的女权主义者 Moore: Or these annoying feminists
她们总是吵着要出台"平等权利修正案" whining about their Equal Rights Amendment.
我可以马上改变它 Well, I can change that in a hurry.
一个知道怎么完成工作的人 Moore: A man who knew how to get the job done.
从B级片里走出来的Ronald Reagan Ronald Reagan came out of the B movies
成为了20世纪50年代最著名的公司代言人 to become the most famous corporate spokesman of the 1950s.
这也是个半导体收音机 只有几盎司重 It's a transistor radio too. Weighs only a few ounces.
它刚好可以放进你的口袋 You can slip it right into your pocket.
Boraxo免水洗手液 洗洗更干净 Boraxo waterless hand cleaner really cleans up for us.
他找到了他的工作 Moore: He had found his calling
而华尔街找到了他们想要的人 and Wall Street had found their man.
你看 银行和公司的计划很简单: You see, the banks and corporations had a simple plan:
改造美国 以便为他们服务 to remake America to serve them.
但是实现这点则需要 But to pull it off would require
选择一个总统的代言人 electing a spokesmodel for president.
在1980年11月4日 他们成功了 And on November 4th, 1980, that's what we did.
...我必忠实履行 ...that I will faithfully execute
合众国总统之职务 the office of President of the United States.
Ronald啊 Ronald Ronald... Crowd: Ronald Ronald Ronald...
谢谢 Thank you.
这是历史性的一刻 Moore: It was an historic moment
因为现在 美国公司和华尔街 because now corporate America and Wall Street
已经掌握绝对的控制权 were in almost complete control.
看到那个站在总统边上的人么? See that guy standing next to the president?
那个像管家的? You know, the one that looks like a butler?
他叫Don Regan His name was Don Regan,
他是美林证券的董事长 the Chairman of Merrill Lynch,
世界上最富有最大的零售经纪公司 the richest and biggest retail brokerage firm in the world.
他在财政部身兼要职 He took the key position of Treasury Secretary
所以他可以颁行富人们期望的减税政策 so he could enact the tax cuts that the rich wanted.
后来 总统的势力逐渐减弱 Regan then became White House Chief of Staff
Regan又成为了白宫的参谋长 as the president started to fade.
他们应该赋予总统其他43个州长有的 Then they should give the president what 43 governors have,
单项否决权 a line-item veto.
还有... - And... - (applause)
- 你应该快点 - 哦 - You're gonna have to speed it up. - Oh.
谁告诉总统要加快速度? Moore: Who tells the president to speed it up?
美林证券的那个人 The man from Merrill Lynch, that's who.
美国再也不会回到从前 Things in America would never be the same again.
这个国家现在像一家公司一样运行 The country would now be run like a corporation.
我们将推行自由股市 We're going to turn the bull loose.
(cheering, applause)
四年后 当Regan再次竞选时 Moore: And 4 years later, when Reagan ran for reelection,
到处都是欢声笑语 it was all smiley faces and happy talk.
我真的感觉到 我们的情况在长远来看会有所好转 I really feel that we're gonna be better off in the long run.
我们在经济上升阶段 We're on the upward swing
工厂生产能力大大增强 and the factories are working much stronger than before.
我们又重新崛起了 We're back on top.
事实上 Regan实施的政策 Moore: Actually, what Reagan presided over
对我们的工业基础结构造成大规模的破坏 was the wholesale dismantling of our industrial infrastructure.
这对于增加储蓄或是保持竞争力是没有作用的 This was not done to save money or remain competitive,
因为公司已经被布置了 as companies back then were already posting
几十亿的盈利任务 record earnings in the billions.
这只对短期利润有利... No, it was done for short-term profits...
而且会破坏这个国家 and to destroy the unions.
上百万人失业 Millions of people were thrown out of work
而剩下的人还被要求付出双倍的努力 and the remaining workers were told to work twice as hard.
但是工人们的工资依旧不涨 But wages for working people remained frozen.
最富有的美国人把他们的个人所得税率 The richest Americans had their top income tax rate
削减了一半 cut in half.
我们非但没有得到公平的工资 Instead of being paid a decent wage,
反而还被鼓励借钱生活 we were encouraged to live on borrowed money
直到我们的家庭债务几乎和GDP持平 until our household debt was nearly 100% of the GDP.
个人破产数量大量增加 There was an explosion of personal bankruptcies.
犯罪率直线上升 We found it necessary to lock up millions of our citizens.
随着保险和制药公司贪婪地 Sales of antidepressants skyrocketed
提高医疗价格 as insurance and pharmaceutical company greed
抗抑郁症药物的销量激增 pushed the cost of healthcare up and up.
所有的这些对于股市和美国的CEO们来说 All of this was great news for the stock market
都是好消息 and for America's CEOs.
现在弗林特城有一半人口都在接受 Moore: Half of Flint was now receiving
来自政府的某种救济 some form of government welfare.
里根时代的末期 During the end of the Reagan years,
我开始涉足纪录片 将镜头瞄准了整个国家 I made my first movie about what had happened to the country
尤其是我的家乡 密歇根州的弗林特城 and specifically to my hometown of Flint, Michigan,
它是通用汽车公司的诞生地 the birthplace of General Motors.
通用汽车当时宣称利润超过40亿美元 GM was posting profits of over $4 billion
但同时被它解雇的工人 while at the same time eliminating
则多达数万之众 tens of thousands of jobs.
我去弗林特拜见通用汽车的首席说客Tom Kay先生 I went to see GM's chief lobbyist in Flint, Mr. Tom Kay,
问他为什么会这样 to ask him why this was happening.
一旦破产的话 通用汽车就不能为任何人提供任何服务 General Motors wouldn't be doing anybody any service if it goes bankrupt.
它必须这么做 It has to do what it has to do
否则在当今的经济环境中它就会失去竞争力 in order to stay competitive in today's economic climate.
解雇18000名员工也在所不惜吗? Moore: Even if that means eliminating 18,000 jobs?
即使解雇20000名员工也在所不惜 Even if it means eliminating 20,000 jobs.
- 30000名呢? - 再多也一样 - Or 30,000? - Whatever.
- 如果是弗林特的全体工人呢? - 完全有可能被解雇 - How about all the jobs here in Flint? - It could feasibly happen.
可能变成了现实 Moore: And it did.
几乎所有的工人都被解雇了 Nearly all the jobs were eliminated
结果通用汽车申请了破产保护 and GM went bankrupt.
也许更大的不幸在于美国的其它地区 Perhaps more distressing was the fact that the rest of America

20年来我一直试图告诫通用汽车以及其它公司 For 20 years I tried to warn GM and others
这一天尽早要到来 但无人理睬 that this day was coming, but to no avail.
也许他们现在愿意听我说了 Maybe now they'd listen.
所以我来到通用汽车的总部 So I went down to the headquarters of General Motors
最后一次向他们陈述我的观点 one last time to share some of my ideas.
你们没有得到许可 不能在这里拍摄 You don't have permission. You can't film here.
啊? Huh?

不行 先生 真的不行 No, sir. No, sir.
你看 20年了 我一直想进去 You know, I've been doing this for, like, 20 years.
我知道 先生 I understand, sir.

你没有事先申请 所以不能在这里拍摄 好吗? You need to get prior permission. You cannot film here, okay?
但如果我不能进去 那我怎么申请 呢? But if I can't go in and get permission, what am I supposed to do?
我觉得他们说得有道理 不能破坏规矩啊 I guess they're right. Breaking up is hard to do.
别拦他们了 你们进去吧 Stop that. Don't do that. Just go in the building.
整整35年 通用汽车赚的钱比任何其它企业都要多 Moore: For 35 years, GM made more money than any other corporation.

他们在临解雇前三天才得到通知 They were given only 3 days' notice.
美国银行不再 Bank of America would no longer provide

我的生活来源全靠这份工作 I live according to my obligation to my job, you know?
不仅仅是我 在这里的每一位工人都是这样 And it's not just me, it's all of the workers here.

但到头来 And at the end,
公司却对我们如此冷酷 Republic cares nothing for us.
我们发现星期二工厂就要关门了 Man #2: We found out that they're gonna shut the plant on Tuesday.
公司不应该这样对待我们 We don't deserve what they're doing to us, you know?
真的太让人痛心了 我曾经说过 It really hurts because, like I said,

所以这... 这太让人痛心了 太让人痛心了 So it was-- it really hurts. It really hurts.
我会怀念这里的一切的 I'm gonna miss all of them, you know?

左派与右派都将自由企业制度 Voices from the left and right are equating the free enterprise system
视同贪婪 剥削和失败 with greed and exploitation and failure.
嗯 仅仅是贪婪 Moore: Hmm, greed,

运用资本主义规则对待他们那些任性的年青人 employ the practices of capitalism in dealing with their wayward youth.
该郡雇用了一家私有的赢利性公司 The county hired a private profit-making corporation
此公司有一个悦耳的名字叫宾州儿童关怀中心 with a sweet-sounding name, PA Child Care.
拥有并运营此公司的是两位商人 It was owned and run by 2 businessmen,
其一是Robert Powell 他是一位律师兼企业家 one of whom was Robert Powell, an attorney and entrepreneur.
他的一位好友 Conahan法官 His good friend Judge Conahan
关闭了公有的少年感化院 closed down the public juvenile home
然后请宾州儿童关怀中心建造了 and then got PA Child Care to build
一所价值800万美元的私有机构 an $8 million privately-owned facility
并以5800万美元的租金 回租给政府 and charge it back to the county for a mere $58 million lease.

Hillary在社交网站MySpace中制作了一个网页 Moore: And Hillary made a MySpace page
取笑她们的校长助理 making fun of her assistant principal
过于严厉和缺乏幽默感 for being strict and having no sense of humor.
我在上面写了些很傻的话 14岁女孩会说的那些话 And it said some pretty silly, like, 14-year-old-girl stuff.
她们校长助理报了警 Moore: Her assistant principal called the police.
他们都被带到了和善的法官Mark Ciavarella面前 They all appeared before kindly Judge Mark Ciavarella.
将要接受他们人生中关于美国资本主义的第一堂课: These kids were about to get their first lesson in American capitalism:
时间就是金钱 一刻值千金 time is money, lots of money.
我走到法庭前面 站在Ciavarella先生对面 I went in front of the court, in front of Mr. Ciavarella,
我站在他面前的时间还不到4分钟 and I wasn't even in front of him for 4 minutes.
我站在他面前的时间大约就两分钟左右 I was only in front of him for, like, 2 minutes.
Ciavarella法官问我的第一句话是 Hillary: The first thing that Judge Ciavarella said to me was,
"这种丑事你怎么干得出来呀?" "What makes you think you can do this kind of crap?"
我想当我走进法院时 他脑海里面一定在想 I'm sure he knew in his mind when I walked in
无论如何 先关这个小家伙一段时间再说 that he was locking this kid up no matter what.
他甚至连看都没看我一眼 He didn't even look at me.
一旦走进法院 我就没有任何机会了 Once I entered the courtroom, I didn't have any chance.
大约有6个小孩子走在我前面 There was about 6 kids who went in front of me.
每一位站在Ciavarella面前的小孩 Every single kid who went in front of Ciavarella,
罪名各异... 有的情节轻微 有的情节严重... for all different reasons-- some minor, some serious--
都一律被处以监禁 got sent away.
尽管威尔克斯-巴里郡也是美国的领土 Moore: Although Wilkes-Barre is located in the United States of America,
但在这里 资本主义占胜了民主制度 here capitalism trumped democracy.
宾州儿童关怀中心的所有者之一Robert Powell Robert Powell, one of the owners of PA Child Care,
跟Conahan法官和Ciavarella法官达成了一种交易 cut a business deal with Judge Conahan and Judge Ciavarella.
然后 Ciavarella法官的判罪率不断上升 Judge Ciavarella then stepped up his conviction rates.
很多孩子都被扔进了宾州儿童关怀中心 Many of these kids were funneled
这个以盈利为目的的少管所 into PA Child Care's for-profit juvenile facility.
就因为这些孩子 And for their troubles,
法官收取了260多万 the judges received over $2.6 million
而宾州儿童关怀中心的所有人 从Luzerne纳税人的钱中 while the owners of PA Child Care received tens of millions
捞取了数千万 of taxpayer dollars from the county.
Powell又是如何挥霍这些钱的呢? And where did Powell go to enjoy all that money?
都花在他的私人飞机上 On his private plane
还有他的游艇 取名"正义号" and his yacht, the "Reel Justice."
6500名儿童被非法定罪 6,500 children were unjustly convicted.

那里 你记不住时间 也数不清日子 In there you lose track of time and you lose track of the date.
我懒得把日子过清楚 I was barely keeping track.
应该是... 我记得是两个月 It was supposed to be, like-- I believe it was, like, 2 months.
最后 由两个月变成了九个月 And it went from 2 months to 9 months.
他原来说三到六个月 He said originally 3 to 6 months,
结果我在那里呆了11个半月 but somehow I ended up being there 11 and a half months
我连法官的面都没有见到 and I never went back in front of the judge at all
就给我加刑了 for him to give me extensions.
不但宾州儿童关怀中心 Moore: Not only did PA Child Care
买通法官来充实他们的牢房 pay off the judges to fill their cells,
而且由他们的雇员来决定 but their employees were the ones who got to decide
一个孩子是否已改过自新 when a child had enough rehabilitation.
是应该这样 因为任何一个政府部门 But that makes sense, because any time a governmental unit
转变为一个盈利机构后 turns over to a profit-making corporation
对它应当发挥的职能 the duties it should be performing,
你还能有何期待呢? what do you expect to happen?
这让我感觉自己像玩物 被他们玩于股掌之间 Matt: It makes me feel like an item that they just used
利用我挣到钱后 就置之不理 to just get money and then tossed me aside.
我只想专注于飞行 I'm just trying to work on my flying
为我的未来走好每一步 and just trying to prepare for my future
所以我可以不去计较这些 最终捱过这一切 so I can put this all behind me, finally be done with all this.
整个审判过程 我完全失控了 During the whole trial I wasn't in control at all,
一旦飞行 就找到了自己 but with flying it's only me.
一切我都得自己来 It's just that I just get to do everything by myself.
方向在我手中 I'm the only one on the control.
Matt喜欢飞行 Moore: Matt loves to fly
并希望以后成为飞行员 and hopes to become a pilot someday.
如果他成了飞行员 他就会学到资本主义的 If he does, he'll get his 2nd lesson

真正的美国英雄 - Man: A true American hero. - (applause)
他会见市长 身临国情咨文演说现场 Moore: He met the mayor. He went to the State of the Union.
老天 他还去了超级杯 Heck, he even went to the Super Bowl.
接着又进了议会 And then he went to Congress.
我一生的激情都献给了飞行 Sullenberger: Flying has been my lifelong passion.
虽然喜欢这个行业 But while I love my profession,
但不满意它目前的发展 I do not like what has happened to it.
这是我的个人经历 - (music halts) - It is my personal experience
当时我决定留在这个我所热爱的行业 that my decision to remain in the profession I love
但现在 这个决定却让我和我的家人背负巨大的经济压力 has come at a great financial cost to me and to my family.
我的薪水少了40% My pay has been cut 40%.
像大多数航空业一样 我的退休金也已停止支付 My pension, like most airline pensions, has been terminated.
所以 我毫不夸张地说 So please do not think I exaggerate when I say that I do not know
没有一个飞行员希望自己的孩子 a single professional airline pilot who wants his or her children
以后也从事这个行业 to follow in their footsteps.
哇哦 Sully 你把整个会场都镇住了 Moore: Whoa, you cleared the room with that one, Sully.
我想议员们可不喜欢听这些 I don't think the congressmen wanted to hear that stuff.
- 他们喜欢是"英雄"的那个你 - 目前... - They like you as a hero. - The current experience...
(patriotic music over dialogue)
作为飞行员 你的起薪是多少? Moore: What was your starting pay as a pilot?
第一年是1.9万 I made $19,000 the first year.
第二年涨到大概2.2万 2.3万的样子 I was bumped up to about 22,000 or 23,000 the second year.
去年的工资总额 Last year, gross pay
是1.76万 I made $17,600.
作为新人 初到航空业的时候 There's a joke in the airline when we get our wings pinned on us
航空公司里流传着这么一个笑话: as new-hire airline pilots that the company just kinda says,
"嘿 别穿着制服去申请食物券" "Hey, don't apply for food stamps in your uniform."
我不了解你 但我希望 Moore: I don't know about you, but I want the pilot
带我飞上三万英尺的人 能拿着一份不错的薪水 who's got me 30,000 feet up in the air to be paid really well
而不是坐在驾驶室里 and not sitting up in the cockpit digging through the pilot's seat
搜寻着座椅上的零钱 looking for loose change.
大概有四个月的时间 There was a period of about 4 months
我靠食物券度日 where I was on food stamps.
- 靠食物券? - 是的 - You were on food stamps? - Yes.
- 那时仍在飞行? - 嗯 - And you were still flying the plane? - Yes.
用... 用我的食物卡 With my-- with my food stamp card.
那个食物券发放办公室的女士 The lady I talked to in the food stamp office,
当我告诉她我是飞行员时 她面不改色 when I told her I was a pilot, she didn't bat an eye,
但她不... 我知道她不相信我 but she didn't-- I knew she didn't believe me.
你是怎么熬过来的? 用什么来支付? Moore: How have you gotten by? How have you been able to afford things?
不用食物券的时候 我偶尔用信用卡 Relying on credit cards to buy the groceries at times
- 买些日用品 - 哦 真的? - when I wasn't on food stamps. - Oh, really?
我的信用卡透支了大约1万 I have about $10,000 in credit card debt
只是因为买生活必需品 just on the necessities,
而不是为了买大屏幕电视机和音响设备 not on the big-screen TV and the stereo.
你用它只是买日常用品 只是为了过活 Moore: You're using it to buy your groceries and get by.
- 是的 - 那你有学生贷款吗? - Yes. - Do you have any student loan debt?
- 有 - 多少? - Yes. - How much?
我的大约8万 Mine is about 80,000.
- 我贷了10万 - 学生贷款? - I took out $100,000. - Moore: Student loans?
照现在这个利率 到我还贷的时候 And by the time I pay it back, at this rate,
加上那些利 费 罚款 it'll probably cost me well over a half a million with interest
可能要超过50万 and fees and penalties.
我不喜欢想这些... 我不想花时间去想这些 It's something that I don't-- I don't like to spend a lot of time
一想这些就让人抓狂 thinking about because it's abysmal.
想到自己欠下的债和少得可怜的薪水 It's one way that I get down really quickly
对于这个业已选择的职业 about my chosen career field
我很容易就变得焦躁不安 is to think about how much I owe and how little I make.
有没有找过副业来缓解这么拮据的生活? Moore: Have you had to work a second job to make ends meet?
我帮别人遛狗 I walk dogs on the side,
还配送MonaVie果汁 I distribute MonaVie Juice.
我知道有飞行员捐赠血浆 I have known pilots to donate plasma
来赚外快 for extra cash.
- 你是说他们献血? - 他们... 嗯... - You mean they give blood? - They-- well--
他们可以在飞行的同时还能赚外快? So they can make extra money even though they're flying an airplane?
是的 他们捐赠血浆 Yeah. They donate their plasma.
献的是成分血 他们会付给你血浆的钱 So they get the blood back, but you can get paid for plasma.
哦 我明白了 - (chuckles) - Oh, I see.
他们先把血抽出来 分离出血浆... They suck the blood out of you, take the plasma...
- 再把血输回去 - ...输给你... - Give you the blood back. - ...give you the--
哦 嗯 也还不错 Oh, well then, not such a bad deal.
他们继续飞行的唯一理由就是因为他们的热爱 The only reason people stay flying is because they love it.
管理者利用了这一点 And managements take advantage of that.
航空公司想方设法 The airlines have managed to farm out
把很多航线分包出去 a lot of the flying to commuters
竭力终止这个联盟 in an effort to basically bust the unions.
你做不到 You can't compete
逐年以越来越低的成本运行 to a lower and lower level every year
同时还能保证强有力的安全措施 without skimping on safety somehow.
2009年2月12日 晚上10点15分左右 Moore: At approximately 10:15 PM on February 12, 2009,
大陆航空3407号班机 Continental connection flight 3407
准备降落于水牛城的机场 began its descent to the airport in Buffalo.
(sirens wailing)
稍等 收到地面通讯信号 Man: Stand by, there's some ground communication,
不是州警就是郡警 either state police or sheriff's department.
我们必须看看地面有什么 We need to find out if anything is on the ground.
飞机离我们5英里远 突然间就和他们 This aircraft was 5 miles out, and all of a sudden
失去了联系 we have no response to that aircraft.
我能告诉你的就是 一架飞机坠落在民居 All I could tell you is there was an aircraft over the marker
暂时无法联络 and we're not talking to them now.
无一生还 Moore: No one survived the crash
50人罹难 and 50 people lost their lives.
媒体将焦点放在飞行员的行为上 The media focused on the actions of the pilots.
Marvin Renslow机长和Shaw大副 Reporter: Captain Marvin Renslow and First Officer Shaw
当时正在闲聊他们的职业 were chatting about their careers.
"职业"是一个委婉的说法 Moore: "Careers" is a euphemism
他们真正聊的是: for what the pilots were really talking about:
少得可怜的薪水和一直以来的过度工作 how little they were paid and how overworked they were.
媒体不可能关注的是: There would be no discussion in the media
为什么我们的经济体制允许 about why we have an economic system
Taco Bell快餐店的管理人员比飞行员拿着更多的薪水 that allows a pilot to be paid less than a manager at Taco Bell.
大副Shaw Reporter: First Officer Shaw
年薪在1.6万到2万之间 made between $16,000 and $20,000 a year
也曾同时做过两份工作 and at one point worked a second job.
另一份工作是在 Moore: Her second job had been waitressing
咖啡店当服务生 at a coffee shop.
这些航空公司都是怎么得逞的呢? How are these companies able to get away with this?
我想这就是资本主义的本质 (laughs) I guess that's the point of capitalism.
它可以让你无所不能 It allows you to get away with anything,
就像公司赚员工的死人钱 like making a profit off the death of an employee.
小甜心 我来 用这个可以打开 Sweetie, I can open it. Let's try it with this.
她叫Irma Johnson Moore: This is Irma Johnson.
Irma的丈夫Dan是德州休斯敦 Irma's husband Dan worked in middle management
Amegy银行的中层管理者 at Amegy Bank in Houston, Texas.
- 要涂这个酱吗? - 不要 - Wanna try to spread it? - No.
不久前 Dan死于癌症 Moore: Dan recently died of cancer,
抛下了妻子Irma和两个儿子 leaving behind Irma and their 2 sons.
但Irma有所不知的是 Amegy银行私下里 But unbeknownst to Irma, Amegy had taken out
为Dan购买了人寿保险 a secret life insurance policy on Dan's life.
一旦Dan死去 银行就冠冕堂皇地 The bank generously named itself as the beneficiary
把自己当作受益人 in the event of Dan's death.
保险公司偶然告知Irma The insurance company then accidentally informed Irma
Amegy银行在Dan去世几个星期后 that Amegy Bank had received a check for $1?million
拿到了150万 just weeks after Dan died.
多谢帮忙 Thank you for helping.
他们一直都没告诉我 Johnson: They never told me.
我想搞清楚 他们为什么给他购买保险? I wanted to find out, well, why did they purchase a policy for him?
- 你对此一无所知? - 嗯 - Moore: You didn't know about it? - No.
他们把自己指定为受益人 And they named themselves as the beneficiary.
是的 Yeah.
也就是说 你丈夫的死亡 Moore: So your husband's death
让他们获利150万? made them $1.5 million richer?
嗯 Mm-hmm.
他们因我丈夫的死亡而获利 I know it's not right for them to try to profit
是不正当的 from my husband's death.
当我明白是怎么回事儿的时候 When I first realized what was happening,
我开始怀疑一切 I was in disbelief.
- 真的让人很痛心 - 太遗憾了 - It's hurtful. - I'm so sorry.
呃... Um...
让人心痛 我想要个说法 it's hurtful and I wanted answers.
Irma联系了Michael D. Myers Moore: Irma contacted Michael D. Myers,
当地的一名律师 他已经对 a local attorney who had already been looking into
企业保险政策展开调查 these kind of corporate insurance policies on their employees.
一般的人寿保险 你为你挚爱的人 With the normal use of life insurance, where you're guarding against
或家中的顶梁柱投保 the loss of a loved one or a breadwinner of the family,
你不希望被保人死去 you don't want that person to die.
正因有这些政策 公司会通过政策预测 With these policies, the companies that buy these
买下这些保险 want the employees to die
并希望员工死去 in accordance with the policy projections.
对于公司来说 你死去的价值比你活着更大 You are more valuable dead to a company than alive.
美国礼品公司 当纳利父子公司 宝洁公司 American Greetings, RR Donnelly & Sons, and Proctor & Gamble
都有员工死亡问题 are all having problems with mortality.
这四个公司的死亡率都是 These 4 combined programs are running at 50%
预期死亡率的50% of expected mortality.
他们非常清楚这一问题 These clients are acutely aware of this problem.
然而这里 经纪人还在抱怨 Basically here the broker is complaining
员工死得不够多 that not enough employees are dying.
因此投资收益还达不到他们的预期效果 And therefore the investment returns are not matching the projections.
经纪人在此写出 The broker writes that NCC is running
NCC正在努力冲破78%死亡率 at 78% of expected mortality.
也就是说 他们希望78%的人死亡 Okay, so 78% of the people we expected to die died.
但问题是3%的人是自杀 But the problem with that is 3 of them were suicides.
你不能每年都指望这个 And you can't count on that every year.
那你觉得在其他什么情况下 Moore: Can you think of any other situation
你会真的希望有人死亡? were you'd actually want people to die?
我觉得 战争中的士兵吧 Combatants in war, I guess.
你什么时候会想让人死亡? Wow, when do you want people to die?
我... 不知道 I-I don't know.
战争情况下 恐怖主义 War situations, terrorism situations.
嗑药 这些吧 我不知道 Drug trials, perhaps. I don't know.
不知道 这问题太变态了 I don't know. That's an odd question.
我不明白这种东西怎么会合法 Moore: I didn't understand how any of this could be legal.
毕竟法律还禁止我 After all, there's a reason that there's a law
购买你房子的火灾险 prohibiting me from taking out a fire insurance policy on your house
因为一旦你房子被烧毁 我就受益了 because I have a vested interest in your house burning down.
既然Myers律师已经研究这个这么多年了 Since Attorney Myers had been researching this for years,
我就问他都有哪些公司 I asked him which companies were profiting
正从这些保险中获益 from these insurance policies.
我不知道 你也不知道 I don't know, you don't know,
因为 你根本无处可查 because there's no place you can go and find out
你所属的公司是否买了这类保险 whether your company is a purchaser
就你所知的都有哪些? - of these types of products. - Which ones do you know?
我们现在知道被泄漏出来的有 The ones that we know that have slipped out are
美国银行 花旗银行 Bank of America, Citibank,
沃尔玛 温迪克斯百货 宝洁 Wal-Mart, Winn-Dixie, Proctor & Gamble,
麦道 好时 McDonnell Douglas, Hershey,
雀巢 美国电话电报公司 西南贝尔 Nestlé, AT&T, Southwestern Bell, Nestl? AT&T Southwestern Bell,
美瑞泰克 美国运通... Ameritech, American Express--
- 你说的这些都是蓝筹企业啊 - 没错 - This is blue chip you're talking about. - Yeah.
那些没什么信誉的公司怎么不尝试这种诡计 These aren't fly-by-night companies trying to do a scam here
这样的话 如果他们有员工死亡 就能拿到支票了 so they can collect a check if one of their employees dies.
大概有几百万美国人 There are probably several million Americans
目前拥有或者曾有过这种保险 who are covered by one of these policies or have been at some point.
有很多人 There's a lot of it out there.
这位是Paul Smith Moore: This is Paul Smith.
他过去是个众所周知的忠诚员工 He used to be what is known as a loyal employee.
我在沃尔玛工作了18年 为之倾尽全力 Smith: I worked for Wal-Mart for 18 years and I gave them 110%.
我是说 我非常爱它 I mean, I loved that company.
但结果却是 And as it turned out, Wal-Mart took out
沃尔玛根据等级和档案配置 over 350,000 life insurance policies
购买了35万多员工的人寿保单 on rank and file associates.
这些人都不是管理层 These weren't executives.
而是像我妻子这样的仅工作了18个月的蛋糕奶油工 These were people like my wife, a cake decorator for 18 months.
他们专挑这类员工下手 That's the type of people they were taking insurance policies out on.
Paul的妻子LaDonna辞去了沃尔玛蛋糕房的工作 Moore: Paul's wife LaDonna left her job at the Wal-Mart bakery
全职在家照顾两个孩子 so she could be a stay-at-home mom for her 2 kids.
她的哮喘非常非常严重 Smith: She had asthma real real bad.
有天半夜进了急救室 She went into the emergency room one night
一个护士过来问我 "你是Smith先生吗?" and a nurse comes out and says, "Are you Mr. Smith?"
我说 "是" And I said, "Yes."
然后她说 "你妻子不一定能撑过去" And she said, "We don't think your wife's gonna make it."
LaDonna这次昏迷之后 Moore: LaDonna slipped into a coma
就再没醒过来 from which she would never awaken.
她的家人全部赶到医院 Her family rushed to the hospital,
尽管他们根本无能为力 even though there was nothing they could do to help.
这儿有面墙 There was a wall here and LaDonna's in the room
LaDonna就在墙那面的房间里 on the other side of the wall.
Jessica不断地问 "她在哪儿?" And Jessica kept saying, "Where is she?"
我就说 "她就在墙的那边" And I said, "She's right on the other side of that wall."
Jessica说 "我们可不可以在墙上凿个洞? And Jessica said, "Can we cut a hole in the wall
那样就能看到她了" so that we can see her?"
就是这种信念支撑着我 And that just sticks with me.
还记得吗? Do you remember that?
我们要留在那儿陪着她 所以我们就给她写信 Smith: We had to stay in there with her, and so we'd write letters to her.
"我的宝贝老婆 任何话语都表达不出我对你的思念 "My dear wife, I miss you more than any words can possibly say.
你是我的一切 You are my life.
无论多简洁的衣服 穿在你身上都那么美 You always see beauty in the simplest things.
总是把我迷得神魂颠倒 我真后悔那时候没再多夸夸你 I've always admired you for that. I wish I could have told you that more.
好想你能快快回到我身边 I want you to come back to me soon.
还有好多东西等着你教我 我的洋娃娃 I still have a lot left to learn from you, baby doll.
爱你的老公 Paul" Your loving husband, Paul."
你还好吗 Wesley? You okay, Wesley?
她才26岁 She was 26 years old.
小笨笨 小笨笨 LaDonna: You're silly. You're silly.
死者越年轻 获得的赔偿就越高 Myers: The younger a person is, the higher the benefit is
因为他们本该活得更久才对 because they're expected to live longer.
而且女人还应该比男人活得更长些 Women are also expected to live longer than men.
对于公司来说 最值钱的员工 So the most valuable employee to the company
就是死去的年轻女人 if they're dead, is a young woman.
LaDonna的死 Moore: LaDonna's death earned
给全世界最富有的企业之一 one of the richest corporations in the world
带来了8万1千美元的额外收入 an extra $81,000.
我却要面对超过十万美金的医疗费账单 I was faced with over $100,000 worth of medical bills
和一个6000美元的葬礼 and a $6,000 funeral
沃尔玛连一个子儿的补助都没给 and Wal-Mart didn't offer a penny to help with that.
我从前是那么相信他们 I did trust them.
这辈子我也没想过 And never in a million years would I have ever thought
会在一个利润表上看到 that somewhere on a profit statement,
"死亡结算 81000美元"这种字样 "Dead associate, $81,000."
沃尔玛根本没把员工当人 Wal-Mart doesn't care about you.
人都死了 When someone passes away,
他们真不该用这个来赚钱 they shouldn't get something out of it.
所有保险范围的共同点就是 Myers: The common denominator to each form of coverage
一旦员工死了 is that when the employee dies,
雇主就能获得保险赔偿金了 the employer gets paid the insurance benefits.
他们经常被称为是"已故农民保险" They're often referred to as "dead peasant insurance."
已故农民? 为何给他们安上这么个怪异的名字? Moore: Dead peasants? Why'd they use such a creepy name?
确实够怪异 我也弄不懂这是什么意思 Myers: It's very creepy. I don't know what it means either.
已故 这个很清楚了 Dead is clear.
指死去的员工 所以说是已故 That's the worker who's passed away, so they're dead.
农民 我不明白他们为什么用那个词 Peasant, I don't know why they chose that word.
我不知道这个是不是有什么历史意义 I don't know if it has some historical significance
或者说他们就是用这种方式 or that's just the way they view the relative value
来看待员工生命的相对价值的 of the employees' lives.
已故农民? Dead peasants?
嗯 在那些就是这么叫的 Yeah, amongst themselves that's what they call it.
那样叫我丈夫不就是侮辱么 It's insulting to refer to my husband like that.
(sniffles)
结果Amegy银行 Moore: It turned out that Amegy Bank
居然还有Dan的第二份已故农民保险 had a second dead peasant policy on Dan,
给他们带来了总计500万美元的收益 bringing their total take to nearly $5 million.
- 资本主义算是罪恶吗? - 是的 - Is capitalism a sin? - Father Dick Preston: Yes.
此时此刻 资本主义对于我 Capitalism for me and for many of us
对于大多数人来说 就是种罪恶 at this present moment is an evil.
它与一切美好的事物相违 违背了公共利益 It's contrary to all that's good. It's contrary to the common good.
与慈悲相违 It's contrary to compassion.
与所有的主流宗教信仰相违 It's contrary to all of the major religions.
资本主义就是 圣书 尤其是我们的圣书 Capitalism is precisely what the holy books,
所告诉我们的不公正 our holy books in particular, remind us is unjust
那么有一天上帝就会降临 and in some form and fashion,
然后以某种方式除掉它 God will come down and eradicate somehow.
这位是Dick Preston神父 Moore: This was Father Dick Preston,
来自弗林特 是他给我和妻子主持的婚礼 the priest from Flint who married my wife and me.
资本主义是个错误 Preston: Capitalism is wrong,
所以应该消灭它 and therefore has to be eliminated.
消灭? Moore: Eliminated?
这么说有点言重了吧 That might be a little harsh,
所以我决定去找另一个神父谈谈 so I decided to go and talk to the priest
给我姐姐和姐夫主持婚礼的那个 that married my sister and brother-in-law.
我确信在资本主义这个问题上 I'm sure he would have a more balanced approach
他会有更好的权衡方法 when it came to capitalism.
资本主义不道德 肮脏 令人出离愤怒 It is immoral, it is obscene, it is outrageous.
你要知道... You know...
简直就是罪大恶极 it is really radical evil.
罪大恶极 It's radically evil.
哇哦 他们的上司知不知道他们是这么说的呢? Moore: Wow, does their boss know that they're talking like this?
我觉得最好还是找主教求证一下 I thought it best to go and check this out with the bishop.
这种体制好像也不是 Bishop Thomas Gumbleton: The system doesn't seem to be
对所有人都有福祉的 providing for the well being of all the people.
而且也就是资本主义体制 And that's what makes it
几乎是从本质上 almost in its very nature
与耶稣说过的一句话相逆 something contrary to Jesus who said,
"穷人有福 富人受苦" "Blessed are the poor, woe to the rich."
此话出自圣路加福音 That's right out of St. Luke's gospel.
我们是如何忍受了这种体制这么久的? Moore: How have we put up with this system for so long?
我意思是 那个... 他们所说的... I mean, it's-- they talk about--
这一体制已经被广泛宣传 The system has built into it what we call propaganda.
宣传可畏啊... I'm in awe of propaganda--
它们有那种能力 the ability to convince people
劝服资本主义体制下的牺牲者 who are victimized by this very system
让他们支持资本主义 并且认为它很不错 to support the system and see it as good.
我们都知道美国资本主义在道德上是正确的 We know that American capitalism is morally right
看它的主要构成就知道了 because its chief elements--
私有制 谋利动机 private ownership, the profit motive
还有竞争市场... 健全而美好 and the competitive market-- are wholesome and good.
他们与上帝律令和圣经教义一致 They are compatible with God's laws and the teachings of the Bible.
从我有记忆开始 就一直被灌输这种思想 Moore: For as long as I can remember,
竞争和获利都是好事儿 I've been told that competition and profit are good things.
他们与上帝律令 (distorted) They are compatible with God's laws
和圣经教义一致 and the teachings of the Bible.
如果增加利润意味着关押一些孩子 Moore: And if increasing profits means locking up a few kids
或是用员工的死亡兑现赚钱... or cashing in on the death of an employee...
与上帝律令和圣经教义一致 (distorted) Compatible with God's laws and the teachings of the Bible.
为股东筹钱在道义上也正确啊 Moore: ...it is morally right to provide for the stockholders.
他们都与上帝律令 (distorted) They are compatible with God's laws
和圣经教义一致 and the teachings of the Bible.
负债 强迁 剥削 Moore: Debt, eviction and exploitation.
与上帝律令和圣经教义一致 (distorted) God's laws and the teachings of the Bible.
我们真正要发誓效忠的是什么? Moore: What were we really pledging our allegiance to?
谋利动机啊 (distorted) The profit motive.
因此所有优秀的美国人 Moore: And so all good Americans came to act as if they believed
都自欺欺人地假装相信 our capitalist economic system was compatible
资本主义经济制度与圣经教义是一致的 with the teachings of the Bible.
(organ music playing)
小时候 我想成为一名神父 When I was a kid, I wanted to be a priest.
不是因为神父那身别致的穿着 It wasn't because of the fancy getups
也不是因为可以跟随哥伦布骑士团(一个美国慈善组织)外出 or the Knights of Columbus escorts,
又或者是那些对我很好的迷人修女 or even the groovy nuns who were so good to me.
而是因为那些神父 他们或从Selma徒步而来 It was because of the priests who went on the march from Selma,
或试图阻止战争 or tried to stop the war,
或倾其一生帮助穷人 or devoted their lives to the poor.
他们清楚地告诉了我耶稣所说的 They told me quite clearly what Jesus said,
第一个可能成为最后一名 而最后一个成为第一 that the first shall be last and the last shall be first;
富有的人死后 That the rich man will have a very hard time
往往很难上天堂 getting into heaven;
如何对待人群中的弱者将成为审判我们的标准 That we will be judged by how we treat the least among us;
对于上帝来说 And that there are no people more important to God
穷人才是最重要的 than the poor.
从那时起 貌似耶稣就被一些人劫持了 Since that time, it seems that Jesus got hijacked
那些人确信 by a lot of people who believe that the son of God
耶稣就是被上帝送到人间 为富人建造天堂的 was sent here to create heaven on earth for the well-to-do.
我肯定是错过了 I must have missed that part of the Bible
圣经中描写耶稣成为资本家的那部分 where Jesus became a capitalist.
大师 请告诉我 Man: Please tell me, master,
我要怎么做才能够永生? what must I do to have eternal life?
不断向"钱" 追求最大利润 Go forth and maximize profits.
你说天国就在眼前 You say the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand,
但到底什么时候才会出现啊? but when exactly will it come?
当你能解除对银行业监管的时候 When you deregulate the banking industry.
救救我 - (voices overlapping) - Help me.
我已经像这样病了二十年了 I've been this way for 20 years.
对不起 我不承保已有疾病 I'm sorry, I cannot heal your pre-existing condition.
你们需自己付清全部医疗费用 He'll have to pay out of pocket.
不知怎的 我总以为耶稣来到地球 Moore: Somehow, I don't think Jesus came to earth
不是为了能到纽约证券交易所敲钟 so he could ring the bell at the New York Stock Exchange.
然而 从一开始 And yet, from the very beginning,
富人便为了自身利益 宣称耶稣和他们在一起 the rich have claimed him for their own.
在华尔街时 我意识到 When I'm on Wall Street and I realize
那里是美国资本主义的神经中枢 that that's the very nerve center of American capitalism,
同时我也认清资本主义 and I realize what capitalism has done
对广大劳动人民的所作所为 那里是我心中的圣地 for working people in America, to me that's a holy place.
我来补充一下 Let me add to it.
在整个伊战 反恐战争持续期间 Over the whole duration of the Iraq war and the terror war,
看看世界股票市场 再看看世界经济 you look at the world's stock markets and you look at the world economy,
尽管部分地区动荡不安 行刺与谋杀频频上演 and despite these horrible pockets of unrest and killing and murdering
如前所述 形势却是空前高涨 that we've been describing, it's never been better.
全球经济呈现前所未有的好势头 The global economy has never been better
股票市场也从未如现在这般景气 Jimmy and the global stock markets have never been better, Jimmy.
这或者是天赐奇迹 It is either a God-given miracle
或者与资本主义的全球化扩展相关 or it has something to do with the victories
再或者两者都有 of the spreading world of capitalism or both.
他们认为华尔街是一片圣地 Moore: They think Wall Street's a holy place.
你认为耶稣会怎样看待资本主义? What do you think Jesus would think of capitalism?
我想他绝对不会... I think he would simply refuse to--
加入其中 to be part of it.
耶稣拒绝成为资本主义的一员 Moore: Jesus would refuse to be part of it,
但他可能显灵 but he probably had a special place up there
找人泄露了花旗银行 for whoever leaked a secret Citibank memo
关于计划统治世界的机密备忘录 about their plan to rule the world.
回到2005年及2006年 Back in 2005 and 2006,
花旗集团 编写了三份涉及 Citigroup wrote 3 confidential memos
形势进展的机要备忘录 致其最富有的投资者 to their wealthiest investors about how things were going.
他们得出如下结论 美国不再是一个 They reached the conclusion that the United States
真正意义上的民主国家 was no longer really a democracy,
而是成为一个政治经济结合体... but had become a plutonomy--
一个由1%的顶层富人控制 a society controlled exclusively by and for the benefit
并从中牟利的社会 of the top 1% of the population
这些人拥有的财富 who now had more financial wealth
比底层95%的总和还要多 than the bottom 95% combined.
此备忘录津津乐道于日渐加剧的贫富差距 The memo gloated about the growing gap between rich and poor
以及他们怎样成为新的统治阶层 and how they were now the new aristocracy
而他们的良好运势将永无尽头 and that there was no end in sight for the gravy train they were on.
但还有一个问题 There was, though, one problem.
据花旗集团所述 According to Citigroup,
短期内面临的最大威胁 the most potent and short-term threat
便是社会要求实现 would be societies demanding
更为公平的财富共享 a more equitable share of the wealth.
换句话说 农民是会反抗的 In other words, the peasants might revolt.
花旗集团悲叹道 那些并不富裕的人 Citigroup lamented that the non-rich
或许不具备雄厚的经济实力 might not have much economic power,
可他们享有同等的投票权 but they do have equal voting power with the rich.
一人一票 One person, one vote.
这才是最令他们恐惧之处 And that's what really scares them--
我们仍可以投票 that we can still vote.
实际上 我们持有99%的选票 In fact, we have 99% of the votes
而他们仅仅持有1% and they only have 1%.
既然如此 持有99%选票的人为什么要容忍? So why do the 99% put up with this?
据花旗集团所述 这是因为大部分选民 According to Citigroup, it's because the majority of the electorate
坚信只要足够卖命 believe that someday they will have a chance
终有一日 of becoming well-to-do themselves
他们也可以成为有钱人 if they just keep trying hard enough.
富有阶层欣喜地看到 The wealthy were pleased that so many people
很多人已经认同了这个美国梦 had bought in to the American Dream
然而这些富人 while they, the rich, had no intention
却无意与人分享 of ever sharing it with anyone.
我认为资本主义比民主更为重要 I think capitalism is a lot more important than democracy.
我不是民主主义的坚定信徒 I'm not even a big believer in democracy.
我总是说所谓民主... 就是两只狼和一只羊 I always say that democracy is-- can be 2 wolves and a sheep
一起商量晚饭吃什么 deciding on what to have for dinner.
这位是Stephen Moore... 与此无关... Moore: This is Stephen Moore-- no relation--
他是个专栏作家 同时也是 a columnist and an editorial board member
美国企业界每日圣经 of "The Wall Street Journal,"
"华尔街日报"的编委 the daily bible of corporate America.
听着 我是赞成人民享有投票权 Look, I'm in favor of people having the right to vote
之类的东西 可你也看到世界上 and things like that, but you know there are a lot of countries
有许多这样的国家 现在依旧贫困 that have the right to vote that are still poor.
民主并不能实现一个好的经济 Democracy doesn't always lead to a good economy
甚至不能实现一个良好政体 or even a good political system.
有了资本主义 你便可以随心所欲 With capitalism, you are free to do what you want,
创造你想要的一切 to make whatever you want out of yourself.
这并不意味你一定成功 It doesn't mean you're gonna succeed.
谨记 美国宪法并不是幸福生活的保证 Remember, the US Constitution does not guarantee happiness.
啊 宪法 Moore: Ah, the Constitution.
终我一生 我只道美国是个资本主义国家 All my life I've heard that America is a capitalist country.
因此我特意翻阅宪法原文 查验是否属实 So I went to see the original Constitution and check out if it was true.
我试图查看宪法建立怎样的经济体系 I'm trying to see where it sets up our economic system,
其中是否规定资本经济制度 like where it says we have a capitalist economy.
司法权 Guard: The jurisdiction.
- 司法权限部分... - 在那里? - Judicial part of the-- - Down there?
没有一处提及 自由市场或者自由企业制 Moore: There was no mention of free market or free enterprise
抑或资本主义 or capitalism anywhere.
实际上 我只看到"我们人民" In fact, all I saw was "We the people,"
关于"一个更完美的合众国" something about "a more perfect union,"
以及"促进促进大众福利事业" and "promoting the general welfare."
福利事业 合众国 我们吗? Welfare, union, we?
听起来像是另一个主义 That sounded like that other -ism.
但不是 这就是民主 But no, that's democracy.
随即我便想 "若是工场变为民主之地 And I began to wonder, "What would it be like
将会怎样?" if the workplace was a democracy?"
如何治理国家 怎样治理经济 There's always been a big separation between how the country is run
这之间总是存在很大分离 and how businesses are supposed to run.
的确如此 Moore: It's true.
这之中似乎存在极大背离 There seems to be a disconnect
一方面我们声称热爱民主 between our professed love of democracy
另一方面我们却接纳独裁 and how we're so willing to accept a dictatorship
乐于为其奔命 every day we show up to work.
威斯康星州的地峡工程却并非如此 It's not that way at Isthmus Engineering in Wisconsin.
他们设计并制造了工业自动化装置 They design and build robotic machines for industry.
此项工程每年耗资一千五百万美元 It's a $15 million-a-year business.
所有工人 Man: All of the workers
均是此项工程的业主 are the owners of the business.
他并未提及该死的股票期权 Moore: He's not talking about some bullshit stock option.
他是指他们是真正的"主人" He means they're the true owners.
我们采纳民主化运营管理 Man: And it's a democratically-run operation where every member
每位成员都有一票选举权与同等发言权 has one vote and an equal say.
- 都赞成吗? - 都赞成吗? - All in favor? - All in favor?
这样便可以完成均衡分配 Man: It takes the money out of the equation.
通过均衡分配 Moore: By taking the money out of the equation
他们便可以发号施令 so that they can call the shots,
最终捞取更多钱财 they end up making more money.
很酷 是吧? Cool, huh?
他们怀着拳拳爱国之心 欲将此份对于 And how patriotic that they want to extend
美国民主的赤诚热爱付诸行动 their love of American democracy to their job.
设想一下 如果你工作的地方 Just imagine if the place where you worked
是由你与同事共同运营 was run by you and your fellow workers.
可能你就不会解雇你的同事 You probably wouldn't lay off your coworkers
来提升你的股票市值了 是吧? to increase the value of your stock, would you?
也不会给自己加薪 Or give yourself a pay raise
却给你的同事们减薪咯 while making your coworkers take a pay cut.
在这里我们绝对不会这么做 Man: We don't really do that here.
你真不能这么着 因为其他人都瞅着你呢 You really can't because everyone else would be looking at you
他们会说"为什么这家伙他娘的那么贪婪?" saying, "Why is this guy so fricking greedy?"
你也知道 一切都是明摆着的 You know, it would be too obvious.
底线是你得有足够多的人 The bottom line is you've got plenty of people
乐于为你卖命干活 who roll up their sleeves every day and go to work.
如果整个环节中有人 But if there's someone way up there on the chain
拿了剩余的钱 就不公平了 that collects all the extra money, that's not fair.
哼 工厂里的公平... Moore: Huh, fairness in the workplace--
想法够新奇哈 what a novel idea.
现在来到加州 这里有一家面包工厂 Out in California, there's a bread factory
工人们每日生产数千条面包 where workers make thousands of loaves of bread every day
你为合作社的利益 Man: The more hours you work towards
工作的时间越长 the benefit of the co-op,
等到的分成就越多 the more you share in the profits.
工人们乐于在这儿工作 Man #2: The workers are happy here.
你我不分大小 一视同仁 No big Is, little yous. Everyone's the same.
作为CEO 我得到的分成 Me as the CEO, I get the same share
和其他所有人一样多 that anybody else does.
这也证实了我们作为工人 And that has proven
还是很有的赚的 to be very lucrative for us as workers.
这里的流水线工人 Moore: Assembly-line workers here earn over $65,000 a year,
一年能挣超过65000美元 more than 3 times the pay
比美鹰航空公司飞行员的三倍还多 for a starting pilot at American Eagle.
我只是希望人们关注 Man: I'm just hoping that people take notice
此种类型的机构构成 of this type of organizational activity
开始考虑将其作为一种选择 and start considering it as an alternative.
你为什么想发财? Why do you want to get rich?
你一生中又能用得着多少辆车呢? How many cars do you really need in life?
显然 他不是车迷 不过没关系 Moore: Clearly, he's not a car guy, but that's okay.
他的面包工厂和其他数百家工人所有企业 His bread factory and hundreds of other worker-owned businesses
证明了人们也并非总为利益所驱使 are proof that people aren't always motivated by profit.
(fanfare)
我们克服顽疾 取得了历史性的胜利 Announcer: An historic victory over a dread disease.
Jonas Salk医生没有将他的天分耗费在捞取钱财上 Moore: Instead of using his genius to make a ton of money,
而是用尽一切精力 Dr. Jonas Salk spent all of his time
将猴的肾脏放入搅拌器中 putting monkey kidneys in a blender
试图找到一种治疗小儿麻痹症的方法 trying to find a cure for polio.
当成功后 他决定无偿奉献 And when he did, he decided to give it away for free.
如果将疫苗卖给一家制药公司 This man could have been rich many times over
此人可以变得非常富有 had he sold his vaccine to a pharmaceutical company.
但他认为他的才能应当用于 But he thought his talents should be used
追求更高的善行 for the greater good.
作为医生和研究教授 And the decent salary he made as a doctor
他的收入很可观 and a research professor was enough for him to live
这足以使他过上舒适生活 a comfortable life.
谁将拥有此项疫苗的专利呢? Who owns the patent on this vaccine?
嗯 大众 我想说 Well, the people, I would say.
没有专利 你想为太阳申请专利吗? There is no patent. Would you patent the sun?
自Salk医生以来 我们发生了很大变化 Moore: Yes, we've come a long way since the days of Dr. Salk.
因为如今的我们只在一些其他地方费尽心机 Because today our best minds are used for something else.
我们把顶尖的数学家和科学家送往那里了呢? Where do we send our top math and science people?
金融业界 Into finance.
他们不再进军美国科学界 They don't go into science in America.
而是涌向华尔街 They go to Wall Street.
今日的学生 与Salk医生时代大有不同 Moore: Today's students, unlike in Dr. Salk's time,
他们从大学毕业时 身负助学贷款债务 can graduate from college with a student loan debt
可达10万美元或是更多 of up to $100,000 or more.
这些学生将在今后的20年里 These students are then beholden to the banks
受制于银行 for the next 20 years.
因而还清银行贷款的最好方式 And the best way for them to pay off these banks
就是为他们效劳 is to go to work for them
而不是为公众谋福利 instead of working for the common good.
我们采用那些极具创造性的人才... Black: We've taken people that could be enormously productive--
这也是我们在美国所紧缺的... just what we're short of in America--
我们录用他们 并让他们从事一种工作 and we take them and we put them in an activity
这种工作不只是没有建设性 that isn't simply less productive,
而且还极具破坏力 but where they're actually destructive;
他们每日辛勤工作 只是让这个世界变得更为糟糕 where actually every day they work, they make the world worse.
那么这些来自哈佛及其他学校的高材生 Moore: So what exactly were the top students from Harvard
现在都在做些什么呢? and other schools working on these days?
金融衍生品... 金融衍生品... 金融衍生品... 金融衍生品... Derivatives... derivatives... derivatives... derivatives...
信用违约互换 Credit default swaps.
我根本搞不懂这些 I can't make any sense out of this.
我最好还是退学吧 I might as well quit.
我刚听到这些新名词时 Moore: That's exactly how I felt
就是这个感觉 when I started hearing these new terms.
所以我去了纽约证券交易所寻求答案 So I went down to the New York Stock Exchange to get some answers.
先生 你能给我解释一下衍生产品的意思吗? Sir, can you explain derivatives to me?
谁能解释一下衍生产品或者信用违约交换的意思啊? Can anybody explain derivatives or credit default swaps?
有人能解释一下吗? Can someone explain to me what these are?
先生 你能告诉我什么是信用违约交换吗? Sir, can you tell me what a credit default swap is?
你能解释一下什么是衍生产品吗? Can you explain a derivative to me?
你能告诉我衍生产品是什么吗? Can you tell me what a derivative is?
- 看来没人能告诉我 - 我只是个蓝领工人 - Nobody'll talk to me. - I'm just a blue-collar guy.
我看出来了 嘿 I can see that. Hey.
- 我就想问一下 - 嗯 继续 - I'm looking for some advice. - Yeah, good.
谁能给我点想法吗? You guys got any advice for me here?
什么是衍生产品? 什么是信用违约交换? A derivative? Credit default swap?
(sighs)
我终于在华尔街上找到了一位 Moore: I did find one guy on Wall Street
愿意直面镜头的人士了 who wasn't a film critic.
Marcus Haupt是一名从常春藤联盟毕业的工程师 Marcus Haupt is an Ivy League educated engineer
他以前是雷曼兄弟的副总裁 who was a vice president of Lehman Brothers
在华尔街工作了15个年头 and spent 15 years on Wall Street
创造了所谓的衍生性金融工具 creating what they call complex financial instruments.
什么是衍生产品? What is a derivative?
衍生产品是依赖于基础资产的 A derivative is a secondary bet
二次博弈 on an underlying product.
比如说你买了一支股票 你就有了这支股票的支配权 So you may have a stock and you have an option on that stock.
你可以行使这种特权 进行买卖 And that option on that stock allows you the privilege
但也可以选择保留 but not the obligation to buy or sell.
我们怎么来操作呢? 你可以决定 How should we put this? You are allowed to make a decision
最终是否要赌一把 of whether or not you want to ultimately take that exposure.
换种说法吧 衍生产品的价格 Let me explain it another way. The derivative's price
取决于其它资产的价格 is based on the price of something else.
就像是二次方程 It's kind of like a second-degree equation.
如果你想 那我们说... If you think of, let's say...
呃 我得再想想 um, maybe I should go back.
我重讲一遍吧 从这儿重讲 Let me start this over again. Let's go back here.
我越听越糊涂了 Moore: I was lost.
或许哈佛大学里 Maybe there's someone at Harvard University
有人能来给我解释一下 who could explain it to me.
没错 那... 那... 那... Yeah, the-- the-- the--
那... 那... 那... 那些买家... the-- the-- the-- the buyer--
卖家持有贷款 这笔贷款可能会拖欠 so the seller holds the loan and it might default.
然后他们廉价卖出... And they sell off--
有人... 别人... somebody-- somebody else--
对不起 请允许我退回去讲 Sorry, let me just back up.
抱歉 这不是一句两句能说得清的 I apologize. These are pretty exotic.
衍生产品比 Moore: Derivatives are nothing more
复杂的赌博还要复杂 than complicated betting schemes.
这是其中一种衍生产品价值的数学计算式 Here's what the math equation of one looks like.
算不出来了吧? Can't figure it out?
没关系 也没准备让你来算 That's okay. You're not supposed to.
他们故意把我们搞糊涂 They've made them purposely confusing
这样他们就可以逍遥法外了 so they can get away with murder.
假设你是政府部门的一名律师 Let's say you're a lawyer and you're coming in
现在来这里审查 and you're from the government and you're trying to evaluate
这些东西是否有偷税 漏税 if these things violate the tax code or not.
如果你看得懂他们是怎么计算价格的 If you can figure out what they're doing,
华尔街的公司很可能就直接雇你了 most likely that Wall Street firm will offer you a job.
我可以去华尔街让他们 Could I go to Wall Street and just ask them
随便在什么上面派生出一个衍生产品吗? to set up a derivative on anything?
可以啊 Yes.
我敢这么说 只要有一个金融产品 Believe me, if it's out there
就必定会有它的衍生产品 there's a derivative on it.
因此华尔街就变成了这样... Moore: So this is what Wall Street has come to--
成了一个疯狂赌场 an insane casino.
我们允许他们在任何东西上下注 We've allowed them to bet on anything,
包括自己的房子 including our family home.
财产代管人 拯救全世界
二十世纪最有权势的央行行长 Reporter #1: ...the most powerful central banker of the 20th century.
格林斯潘已经成为经济学的代表 Reporter #2: Greenspan has become an economic icon.
艾伦·格林斯潘称 经济正处于繁荣阶段 Reporter #3: Alan Greenspan says the economy is hunky-dory.
格林斯潘头脑发热了 就像"头脑发热的女孩"那样 Reporter #4: Greenspan gone wild. It's like "Girls Gone Wild."
Mick Jagger(滚石乐队主唱)和艾伦·格林斯潘有什么共同之处? What do Mick Jagger and Alan Greenspan have in common?
艾伦·格林斯潘 在那个时候 Alan Greenspan, who at that moment in time
被认为是全世界有史以来 was surely thought to be the smartest man
最聪明的人 who had walked the face of the earth,
他开始说这么一句话 "让你的房屋增值" he starts using a phrase, "tap your home equity,"
美国人可以让自己的房屋增值 --that Americans can tap their home equity,
就像艾伦·格林斯潘说的 which is just Alan Greenspan-speak
"借出你的房屋"那样 for "borrow against your home."
如果你偿还不起 你就会失去自己的住所 And if you can't repay it you'll lose your house.
这的确说动了大多数美国的老年人 It actually started by talking mostly older Americans,
那些已经有了自己房子的人 people who already had homes,
拿房屋作抵押去再贷款 into refinancing their homes
最后让自己无家可归 to get them out of houses.
是的 把那些老年人赶出自己的屋子 Moore: Yes, get senior citizens out of their houses.
让那些已经有房子的人上当 The scam to swindle people out of the homes
失去自己的屋子 是需要点技巧的 they already owned was masterful.
他们是这么干的 Here's how it worked.
首先 告诉这些户主们 他们拥有了一座银行 First, tell these homeowners that they own a bank.
这座银行就是他们的房屋 And that bank is your home.
如果你的房屋值二十五万 So if your home is worth $250,000,
那你就是四分之一个百万富翁了 that makes you a quarter millionaire.
你简直是坐拥金山 You're sitting on a goldmine.
你拥有自己的银行 You own your own bank.
专属你的银行 The bank of you.
你能用你的银行赚更多的钱 And you can use your bank to get more money.
只要再贷款就可以 Just refinance.
所有人都在这么做 Everyone's doing it.
当然在这几十或几百页的细则中 Of course hidden in the dozens or hundreds of pages of fine print
隐藏着些很微妙的条款 它们可以让银行把利息加到 are tricky clauses that allow the bank to raise your interest rate
一个你不知道数值 to a number you didn't know about,
可能加到让你无力还贷 perhaps so high that you won't be able to repay your loan.
但没关系 But that's okay.
如果你还不起 那我们只会收走你的房子 If you can't pay it we'll just take your house.
当然 他们要想收走你的房子 Of course, before they could take your house
就需要先修改相关规章制度 they needed to change the regulations and the rules.
看我在这儿找到了一张什么照片? Moore: What's this photo I found here?
这是在联邦存款保险公司年度报告上找到的 It was in an annual report of the FDIC.
John Gilleran 储蓄监理署的署长 John Gilleran, the head of the Office of Thrift Supervision,
负责管理存贷款业务 which is supposed to regulate savings and loans,
就是拿着电锯的那个人 he's the guy with the chainsaw.
照片中其他四个笑嘻嘻的傻子 And the 4 other grinning idiots
三个是银行最棒的游说议员者 in the photo are the 3 leading lobbyists in banking
还有一个是联邦存款保险公司的副总 and the deputy director of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
他们正在销毁一堆规章 And they're poised over a pile of regulations.
很显然这就表明了 And this is supposed to demonstrate
他们要破坏这些规章的心思 their intention to destroy regulation.
他们成功了 And they succeeded.
现在我们了解了 And now we know what happens
没了金融监管会怎样 when you destroy financial regulation.
发生金融大灾难 You produce a financial catastrophe.
债务重重的三口之家 A growing family with a lot of debt;
付不起首付的年轻夫妇 A young couple with no down payment;
难以证明自己收入的个体户 A business owner whose income was hard to document;
他们都曾向三个不同贷款方申请住房贷款 Every one of them was turned down for a home loan
但全部被拒绝了 by 3 different lenders.
国家金融服务公司帮助他们实现了这一切 I'm with Countrywide and I got them all approved.
不要被和善的态度 Moore: Don't be fooled by the pleasant demeanor
和那头金发给忽悠了 and blonde hair.
这其实就是民间 It's the same pitch the mafia gives you
小额贷款公司用的那招 in the neighborhood.
我知道你的感受 (imitating Brando) I know how you feel.
你欠了很多债 You got a lot of debt.
你没钱付首付 You don't have any money for the down payment.
你无法提供证明收入的文件 You can't find your documents.
没关系 我贷款给你 让你无法拒绝 It's okay. I'll make you a loan you can't refuse.
这叫做次级贷款 It's called subprime.
现在是免息的哦 You pay no interest now.
以后多付一点点就行了 You pay a little more later.
不要担心往后的日子 我们会照顾你的 Don't worry about later. We'll take care of you.
和小额贷款公司一样 国家金融服务公司 And like the mafia, Countrywide,
花旗 富国 大通... Citibank, Wells Fargo, Chase...
往前走 Let's go.
没准哪天他们就会来讨债 ...they would someday stop by to collect
并收走你的房子 and take your home.
我以前每个月付1700 那会儿还行 Randy Hacker: I was paying 1,700 a month and making it.
接着涨到了2000 后来变成了2300 Then it went to 2,000. Then it went to 2,300.
最后涨到2700了 Then it went to 2,700.
我吃不消了 Can't do it.
这是伊利诺伊州Peoria市的Hacker一家 Moore: These are the Hackers of Peoria, Illinois.
Randy是名铁路工人 Randy is a railroad worker
Donna在养老院工作 and Donna works for retirement homes.
他们耕种了四十多年的农场 Their farm, which had been in the family for over 4 decades,
被花旗银行取消了赎回权 had been foreclosed on by Citibank.
几年前Randy在工作的时候出了场事故 Randy had had an accident on the job years ago
现在有些残疾 and was now on disability.
他们就这么他妈的明目张胆 They absolutely just plain fucking stole everything,
靠着一支破笔 一名律师和一名法官 my whole life's savings and everything,
偷走了我毕生积蓄 我的一切 by a stroke of a pen and a lawyer and a judge.
Hacker一家给我看了 花旗银行取消抵押品赎回权通知 Moore: The Hackers showed me the foreclosure notice from Citibank.
我注意到了 What caught my eye
他们抵押物所在的那个小镇(Flint镇) was the town from which their mortgage came.
大银行麾下的一家公司 It turns out that a company owned by the big banks
在美国最穷困这个小镇 has chosen to run 60 million mortgages through,
选择的6千万的抵押地 of all places, one of the most desperate towns
建自己的工厂 in the United States.
这家公司雇Flint镇的人 This company hires the people of Flint
印出了全国几乎60%的 to send out nearly 60%
取消抵押品赎回权通知 of all the foreclosure notices in the country.
这看上去就像个玩笑 只是有些太过残酷 In what seems to be some sort of cruel joke,
我的家乡现在正在 my hometown was now in the service
做着同样的事情 让其他美国人 of helping to turn the rest of America
步Flint镇人的后尘 into Flint.
一般而言 当一家银行强制 诸如Hacker一家 搬出房屋时 Typically when a bank forces a family like the Hackers
他们会雇专业人员 out of their home they hire professionals
来进行清理 to come and clean up the place.
但在这个时候 银行会想 In this case, the bank figured,
为什么放着这个穷困潦倒的一家子不用 why pay top dollar when we've got a desperate family
而要付高工资给专业人员呢? who will work cheap?
最后Hacker一家 In a final humiliation
还要替银行卖命 the Hackers went to work for the bank
尽管银行把他们赶出了房子 that took their home.
财产和垃圾 废品 还有个人物品 Donna: "Property is to be turned over in broom-clean condition
都一起烧成了灰 with all trash, debris and personal property removed.
交付钥匙的时候 Upon delivery of the keys
计划咨询服务代表 会交给你一张1000美元的支票 the PAS representative will hand you a check for $1,000."
这1000美元 Randy: You know, 1,000 bucks
是我清理房屋的报酬 to get out of my own house and stuff,
我真的想谢谢他们 这钱付得很值 I really want to thank them. That was really something.
我的妻子花了一星期 打扫了整个屋子 My wife worked for a week to clean the house up
确保这屋子拿得出手 and make sure it was presentable to somebody else.
很高兴他们付我报酬 我真的得感谢他们 I'm glad they did that. I have to thank them.
他们真是太好了 It was awful nice of them.
没错 我真的想好好谢谢他们 Yeah, I'd like to thank them all right.
我还有一把 I have one more.
哦 这是我们卧室的钥匙 Oh, that goes to our bedroom door.
我来想想... Trying to think what--
都是对应什么的 其中一个被我锁起来了 that goes that that. I had a lock on it
是我放枪的地方 以防孩子拿到 to keep kids out 'cause I have guns.
这是给你的钱 Randy And here's your money, Randy.
你现在看到的 Moore: What you're witnessing
是一起掠夺 is a robbery.
我开始理解为什么会有人 I'm starting to understand why people,
失去理智 朝别人开枪了 they lose their minds and start shooting people.
我不是说我也会那么做 I'm not gonna say I would do something like that,
我只是明白了 他们是如何迫使人们 but I can see how they get people
身处绝境 into that situation where
不得不把他们炸了 people go in there with bombs and blow them up
朝他们开枪 and shoot at them.
他们会出那种事 其实是咎由自取 Anything that happens to them people, they deserve it,
我只能这么说 is all I can say.
我希望能发生一些事... I hope something happens--
会的 yeah, well.
不说了 Can't say no more.
是有些不幸的牺牲品 Some roadkill right there.
这是Bob Feinberg Moore: This is Bob Feinberg.
他掌管着全美最大的贷款机构 He handled all the VIP loans for Countrywide,
国家金融服务公司的VIP业务 the nation's largest mortgage company.
尽管国家金融服务公司主要业务是 Although Countrywide mainly specializes
以高得惊人的利息率 贷款给那些低收入者 in outrageously high interest loans for low income people,
Bob的工作却是处理 Bob's job was to take care of
一些国家最高层政治领袖的业务 some of the country's top political leaders.
有一天 我的一位大老板叫我进他的办公室 Bob: One day one of the bigger bosses called me in the office.
他说 "你给这人打个电话" He said, "I want you to call this guy."
我说好 I said okay.
然后他说 "他是Angelo的一个朋友" And he said, "He's a friend of Angelo's."
Angelo Mozilo就是国家金融服务公司的CEO Angelo Mozilo's the CEO of Countrywide.
"告诉他这个利息率 把这些费用免掉 "Give him this rate. Waive these fees.
记住 咬好价 一分钱都他妈不许涨" And get it locked in. And don't fuck it up."
我只好说 "噢 啊 好的" And I was like, "Oh, okay."
所以说这是个特殊的部门 So it was a special department
用来处理类似Angelo的好友这种业务 that handled friends of Angelo.
给予一些折扣 Discounts were being given.
免除一些费用 Fees were being waived.
有时候 连纸上签名都不用 And at times paperwork was being waived.
但我们会把这些记录在 名为"FOA"(Angelo的朋友)的档案里 We literally would write on the file "FOA."
他们都是真正位高权重的人 These were really important people.
我这里有Richard Holbrooke... Ambassador Holbrooke I had Richard Holbrooke-- Ambassador Holbrooke,
还有Donna Shalala Donna Shalala,
国会议员 抵押信贷市场监管者 people on Capitol Hill, people that regulate the mortgage markets,
华尔街的大佬 people that regulate Wall Street,
和范妮梅(美国金融机构)的总裁 Jim Johnson and Jim Johnson, head of Fannie Mae,
住房和城市规划部部长Alphonso Jackson Alphonso Jackson the secretary of HUD...
财务委员会的Conrad参议员 Senator Conrad from the Finance Committee.
我家电视在客厅 那时候我人在厨房 I had the TV on in my house. I was in the kitchen
听到一个自大的家伙 用张狂的口气 and I heard a voice pontificating
谈着掠夺性贷款 以及我们多么应该终止它 about predatory lending and how we have to put an end to it.
我国的金融业监管者 Our nation's financial regulators
应该像巡警一样 are supposed to be the cops on the beat
打击无道德金融行为 protecting working Americans
保护美国劳动者的利益 from unscrupulous financial actions.
Senator Dodd... Christopher Dodd... 都在发表演说 Bob: Senator Dodd-- Christopher Dodd-- was speaking.
我瞪着电视 心里很不舒服 And I just stared at the television and I was upset.
有些贷款是发放给那些精明的借款人 Some of these loans have legitimate uses,
用来创造更高的价值 when made to sophisticated borrowers
发挥合理的用途 with higher incomes.
我为他做了不少贷款业务 I had done a number of loans for him
他享有利息率的折扣 还有其他好处 in which he got discounts and all the things
这都是因为他是Angelo的朋友 that go with being a friend of Angelo's
还有他的职位能为我们带来的好处 and all the good stuff.
参议院银行与住房委员会 Moore: The Senate Banking and Housing Committee
本该是抵押贷款业的监管者 is supposed to be the watchdog of the mortgage industry.
Senator Dodd是委员会主席 Senator Dodd is the chairman of this committee
在职已有28年 and has served on it for over 28 years.
作为Angelo的朋友之一 As a friend of Angelo
国家金融服务公司发放给了他 he received over $1 million worth
价值一百多万美元的低息贷款 of discounted loans from Countrywide.
就在这里 就在隔壁 有些人 Someone next door here is selling a toxic
在发放垃圾的高息贷款 piece of crap loan to somebody.
我却要给那些VIP发放 最低息长期的大额贷款 I was required to give the most suitable loan to that VIP.
你从没觉得 Moore: Did you ever feel that
你正在做的工作很像行贿吗? what you were doing might be bribery?
我不觉得我在行贿 从不 Bob: I didn't feel like I was bribing anybody, no.
我只是在工作 我是VIP部的人 I was just doing my job. I was the VIP guy.
公司没人不认识我 Everyone in the company knew who I was.
没人不认识 You know, everyone.
这是一个很让人飘飘然的工作 So it was kind of a flattering situation.
但是我一点也不觉得自己做错了 从不觉得 But no, I don't feel like I did anything wrong at all.
何况这事情我不做 自然也会有别人做 And if I didn't do it, somebody else would have been doing it.
所以人们才需要像Bill Black这样的人 Moore: That's why we need people like Bill Black,
作为银行的一名监管者 one of the bank regulators who uncovered
揭露了80年代第一储蓄银行的丑闻 the Savings & Loan scandal in the 1980s.
发生了一些不合法的事情 Something improper happened
我打赌你们这些监管者都知道 and I bet you the regulators know.
那次丑闻的主要人物之一 Charles Keating Moore: One of the leading figures of that scandal, Charles Keating,
曾经有过想杀了Bill Black的想法 had an idea on what to do with Bill Black
并且把指示写在了备忘录上 发了出去 and sent a memo out with these instructions.
我问过他 现在谁主导这次事件 I asked him who was looking out for us today.
在那次事件中 FBI到底扮演了什么角色? Where was the FBI in all of this?
FBI在2004年9月才开始 The FBI began publicly warning
警告公众 in September 2004
银行带头的贷款欺诈 that there was an epidemic of mortgage fraud
正在蔓延 perpetrated by the banks.
他们用了蔓延这个词 Epidemic was their word.
但是911事件后 But when 9/11 hit,
布什政府抽调了 the Bush administration transferred
至少500名FBI的专家 at least 500 white-collar FBI specialists
放弃手边处理的白领犯罪 out of dealing with white-collar crime,
即便那时我们正处于 even though we were entering
布什政府的整个任期内 during the entire Bush administration
应该说是美国历史上 实际上 是世界历史上 the greatest wave of white-collar crime
最严重的白领犯罪浪潮 in the nation's history, in fact, in the world's history.
FBI说至少有80%的 The FBI says that 80%
贷款欺诈损失 of the mortgage fraud losses
是贷方导致的 are induced by lender personnel.
这代表什么? Meaning what?
代表并不是 Meaning not the borrower
那些流离失所的借款者想诈取储蓄和贷款 coming off the street trying to defraud the savings and loan.
而是控制那些金融组织的人 他们导致了这些欺诈 These are frauds led by whoever controls the organization.
- 对 - 换句话说 就是CEO - Right. - It's typically the CEO in other words.
那么这些CEO认为他们能逃脱处罚吗? So did these CEOs think they were gonna get away with it?
他们的确逃脱了处罚 They have gotten away with it.
的确如此 显而易见他们做到了 Moore: Yes, apparently they did.
随着即将到来的总统大选... And with the presidential election just around the corner...
- 定义富有 - 五百万 - Define rich. - 5 million.
那些精英分子担心 他们的犯罪盛宴会因此穷途匕现 ...the elites were worried that their crime spree might come to an end.
他们占有了美国公众的房屋 After bilking trillions from the American public
获利达数万亿美元 by repossessing their homes,
使得美国人已经付不起医药费了 bankrupting them when they got sick
这时候 他们开始说服公众 把收入 and convincing them to invest their earnings
和退休金投入到 像股票市场这样的赌场里去 and pensions in the casino known as the stock market,
富人们决定最后干一票大的 the rich decided to make one last heist
尽可能得多搜刮财产 and as their 30-year long party came to an end,
为他们长达30年的盛宴做个结尾 take as much of the silverware with them as they could.
不过首先 得转移公众的注意 But first they needed a distraction.
他们从911学到 And as they learned after 9/11,
在勇士的故乡 陈旧而美好的恐慌 nothing works better in the home of the brave
最有效果 than some good old fashioned fear.
而且 这场惊心动魄的谢幕演出 And who better to wheel out for one last scary performance
又有谁比四眼天鸡(布什)自己更适合出演呢? than Chicken Little himself?
奥斯卡选民 由您决定 Oscar voters, for your consideration.
晚上好 Good evening.
对于美国经济而言 这是一个非凡的时期 This is an extraordinary period for America's economy.
我们顶尖的经济学专家 The government's top economic experts
认为 如果国会不及时采取行动 warn that without immediate action by Congress,
美国将进入经济恐慌期 America could slip into a financial panic
大萧条将接踵而至 and a distressing scenario would unfold.
更多的银行将会倒闭 您身边的银行也会在劫难逃 More banks could fail, including some in your community.
股票市场将进一步下跌 - (thunder rumbling) - The stock market would drop even more,
你退休账户的钱会因此减少 which would reduce the value of your retirement account.
房屋价格将直线下滑 The value of your home could plummet.
大量抵押品赎回权将被取消 Foreclosures would rise dramatically.
如果你有自己的公司或者农场 And if you own a business or a farm,
你会发现想拿到贷款愈加困难 利息也水涨船高 you would find it harder and more expensive to get credit.
更多的公司会倒闭 More businesses would close their doors
数以百万的美国人将失业 and millions of Americans could lose their jobs.
即使你的信用记录良好 - (screams) - Even if you have good credit history,
想贷款买车或送孩子上大学 it would be more difficult for you to get the loans you need
也日益艰难 to buy a car or send your children to college.
最后 我们的祖国将遭受 And ultimately our country could experience
一段漫长而痛苦的衰退期 - a long and painful recession. - (people screaming)
所有的市民朋友们 我们绝不能任其发展 Fellow citizens, we must not let this happen.
实际上 这次演讲完全没必要 Moore: In reality there was no need for this speech,
因为主流媒体 because the mainstream media
早就已经喝下了苦艾酒(一种毒品) had already drunk the Kool-Aid.
2008年9月15日
灾难 美国金融体系的 Meltdown. The American financial system
根基已经摇摇欲坠 is rocked to its foundation.
大银行倒台 股票大幅下跌 The giant bank crumbles, stocks plummet.

- 血洗整个金融界 - 末日降临 - Blood on the floor. - Armageddon.
开始向金融五类测试征税 A category-5 test of our financial levies.
到底怎么搞的? What the fuck happened?
你看过大坝是怎么溃堤的吗? Have you ever seen a dam fail?
从一次小撞击 小渗漏开始 It starts with a little crack, a little seepage.
凭借压倒性优势的支持 Reporter: With overwhelming support,
国会决定取消条款 Congress struck down the restrictions.
各大银行纷纷回归 Big banking is barreling back.
随后堤坝开始被侵蚀 Black: And it starts eroding
直至大坝内部的中坚部分被全部毁灭 and it destroys all the internal strength of the dam.
房奴们在 Reporter: Poison from the housing mess
银行系统里越陷越深 seeped deeper and deeper into the banking system.
很快 大坝开始走向自我毁灭 Black: And soon the dam works against itself.
大坝的重量和水的重量 The weight of the dam and the weight of the water

股市近一年的下滑 Reporter: The market's year long slide
把许多的大型绩优股都拉下了马 has brought down some of the biggest blue chips.
水流开始急速地冲过 Black: The water starts rushing through.
今天早上 华盛顿互惠银行公司破产 Reporter: This morning, Washington Mutual has gone under,
这是美国银行业史上最大的失败 the largest failure in US banking history.
股票已经跌落到危险值 Reporter #2: Stocks fell off a cliff.
史上单日跌幅最大 The largest single point drop in history.
它继续毁坏着大坝的其他部分 Black: It destroys the rest of the dam.
整个溃堤过程 And the whole failure
其实只有2分钟左右 looks like it only takes 2 minutes.
但是当然 那个真正致使大坝毁灭的 But of course, it's that little hole
小小的洞 that's been there for several years
已经存在有好几年了 that really destroyed it.
这本来就是一种根基不健全的体制 You have this fundamentally unsound system
还没有建在基岩之上 built on a foundation of sand
而是选择了沙地 instead of bedrock.
并且腐烂是从核心开始的 And it was rotted from the core.
听起来就像 资本主义是因它自己而走向终点 It seems like capitalism is just collapsing on itself.
哪些人在这个过程中富有起来了? Who got rich here?
在这个过程中 很多人都富有起来了 Lots of people got rich during this time,
首先主要是在大型银行 储蓄和借贷所 primarily the officers and directors
工作的高官和经理 of the large banks and savings and loans
还有主业务非借贷的借贷者 and the specialty non-prime lenders.
这些人迅速拥有了惊人的财富 These people became unbelievably rich.
国会议员也富有了 And members of Congress got rich,
特别是那些离开了国会的人 especially once they left Congress.
他们不少人都进了金融机构工作 A number of them go and work in the financial institutions.
当然了 还有像Do Rubin和Summers Sure, and as do Rubin and Summers.
Robert Rubin 花旗银行和 Moore: Robert Rubin, a one-time top executive
高盛投资公司的前任最高执行长 at both Citigroup and Goldman Sachs
成功修改了一条法律条款 champion a change in the law
即允许商业银行进入投资银行业和 that allowed commercial banks to get into new areas
国外保险产业等新领域 like investment banking and exotic insurance products.
这使得花旗 This made it legal to let Citicorp
合法吞并了旅行者集团 merge with Travelers Group,
花旗通过这次相当于700亿美元的投资 a deal valued at $70 billion,
成为了世界最大的银行 creating the world's largest bank.
离开克林顿政府后 After leaving the Clinton administration,
Rubin为花旗集团工作 Rubin worked for Citigroup,
赚了超过一亿一千五百万美元 earning more than $115 million.
Summers怎么赚到这么多钱的? Summers made his money where?
Summers做高级顾问 Summers made his money as a supposed consultant
并且经常做演讲 and in giving speeches
有时候 显然一场 at apparently, in some cases,
就赚了十多万美元 over $100,000 a pop.

这个讲不通 That makes no sense.
当然 这个讲得很通的 Of course, it makes perfect sense.
这个对华盛顿来说并不新鲜 This is not new to Washington.
有种人会给出一个错误但正是你期望的答案 People who will give you the wrong answer
这种人可是人才 but the answer you want are invaluable.
他们经常升职 And they often get promoted
这正是因为他们愿意说出 precisely because they're willing to say
甚至做出荒唐的事情 and do absurd things.
正是这些人向我们承诺 These are the people that promised us
这种金融反常现象 会让大家都变富 that financial deregulation would make all of us rich.
而且正是这些人 他们自己都变富了 And these are the people who were personally made rich.
富人想更富这并不让人惊讶 Moore: It was not surprising that the rich wanted to get richer.
但现在 他们又想出了新的下流招数 But now they had come up with a new and brazen way to do it.
就是回到财政部 Just back a big truck up to the Department of Treasury

九月发出的 I felt that the announcement
金融危机通告 of this crisis in September,
就在大选的前几周 just a few weeks before election,
我觉得这很可疑 was very suspicious.
这是议会最紧张的时期 This is when Congress is the most nervous.
我想 "等一下 这里发生什么事了? And I thought, "Wait a minute. What's going on here?
不正常" This is not normal."
议会的领导 Moore: The leadership of Congress
和布什政府 and the Bush administration
很快召开了一系列秘密会议 quickly held a series of private meetings
和华尔街大佬一起 计算出了 with the titans of Wall Street to figure out
要多少钱才可以弥补 just how much money was needed to cover
投资者所有的坏账 all the bad bets investors had made.
财政部长Henry Paulson 前高盛执行总裁 A deal was cut with Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson,
做了一笔 the former CEO of Goldman Sachs,
净值约为七亿美元的交易 whose net worth was estimated at $700 million
就在他离开高盛 去财政部工作前 when he left Goldman to go and run the Treasury Department.
我想 今晚在发言人办公室 I think we saw the best of the United States of America
我们看到了美国最出色的人才 in the Speaker's office tonight.
美国最出色的人才? Moore: The best of America?
或者 他的意思是高盛最出色的人才吧? Or did he mean the best of Goldman Sachs?
财政部 The Treasury Department,
本质上是华尔街的臂膀 it's basically an arm of Wall Street.
所有主管都来自高盛 All the people in charge were from Goldman Sachs.
我们称之为现代的高盛政府 We call it Government Goldman in the modern era.
因为布什财政部 Moore: That's because there were now numerous
有很多都是前高盛主管 former Goldman executives inside the Bush Treasury Department,
和克林顿时期一个样 as there were under Clinton.
他们就是政府内部出色的游说议员者 They worked as powerful lobbyists from the inside
让议会废除金融条款 to abolish financial regulations
然而我们还要付他们薪水 while we paid their salaries.
财政部长Paulson... Black: Treasury Secretary Paulson--
他在高盛可不是普通高管 he wasn't just randomly at Goldman.
就是他 通过购买国外房屋金融衍生产品 He was the guy at Goldman who got them big time
将高盛推向巅峰 into buying these exotic housing derivatives.
所以 他给高盛带来了一大堆麻烦 So he got Goldman in a huge amount of trouble.
疯狂的房屋金融衍生产品 Moore: Insane housing derivatives
毁掉了高盛大部分的竞争力 had now destroyed much of Goldman's competition.
高盛人现在认为这都是 And with the Goldman boys now calling the shots
政府授意的行为 他们确定 inside the government, they would ensure that Goldman
一切尘埃落定之时 就是高盛 would end up as the kings of Wall Street
华尔街称霸时代的终结之时 when the dust settled.
所以 最不应该 Black: So the last possible people
给财务部建议的人是高盛 that should be giving advice to Treasury would be Goldman.
自然而然 Paulson So naturally Paulson,
高盛的前执行总裁 引起了他们的注意 former CEO of Goldman, puts them on.
他们最后给出什么建议呢? And what advice do they end up giving?
好吧 利用纳税人 Well, to use the taxpayers
援助高盛 to bail out Goldman
和其他幸运的金融机构 and other favored financial institutions.
Paulson部长向国会交了一份 Well, Secretary Paulson has submitted
简洁的提案 a simple proposal to Congress.
就是这份... 只有三页 This is it-- 3 pages.
大约一个字十亿美元 It's about $1 billion a word.
真是太简洁了 And it is quite simple.
Paulson部长有国库的钥匙 Secretary Paulson gets the key to the treasury.
他要以美国人民的名义 He's gonna start off by borrowing $700 billion
借七千亿美元 in the name of the American people,
今后可能更多 而且直接通过所有法律 maybe more later. And it waives all laws.
所有法律! All laws!
甚至没有庭上复议 相当简洁的提案 Not even court review. Pretty simple proposal.
我们处在真正的金融危机中 We are in a real crisis situation
危机正在扩大 that could mushroom
可能会变得比大萧条还糟糕 into something worse than the Great Depression.
我看到了恐惧 有人开始哭了 So I saw fear. One gentleman started to cry.
大家都说 这将是一场巨大的灾难 People are telling us that it's going to be this gigantic calamity.
我还打算参加两个月后的大选 And I'm up for election in 2 months.
现在距大选就八周了 8 weeks away from election,
我不想犯错 到底怎么做才对? I don't want to make a mistake. What's the right thing to do?
上帝保佑我们 Heaven help us.
如果我们不能渡过难关 If we fail to pass this
更坏的事情就要发生 I fear the worst is yet to come.
一些议员被告知 And a few members were even told
如果我们否决这个提案 就会颁布戒严令 that there would be martial law in America if we voted no.
他们逼我们通过提案 They were ramming this thing down our throat.
想让我们立刻投票 They wanted us to vote on it right away
不要去做任何认真的分析 without any kind of thoughtful analysis.
- 没有听证会吗? - 没有 - No real hearings? - No real hearings.
我不打算... 你知道 And I wasn't about to--
我当初投票赞成 I got cornered into voting
伊拉克的议案 就是因为他们说的 for the Iraq resolution based upon some lies
某些谎话 我不想再被骗了 that they made to me and I wasn't going to go through that again.
我不会眼看着事态严峻 却坐以待毙 I will not wait on events while danger is gathering.
我不会眼看着危险临近 却袖手旁观 I will not stand by as peril draws closer and closer.
他们利用恐惧达到自己的目的 Use fear and then you get done what you want.
他们开了这样一扇窗... And they created in this window--
在大选前两个月... 这样关键的时刻 2 months before election-- this pressure cooker.
人们明白众议院 People understand that the House of Representatives
需要通过这样的法令 needs to pass this piece of legislation.
发言人先生 我对美国民众的建议... Mr. Speaker, my message to the American people...
就是不要让国会签署华尔街的协议 don't let Congress seal this Wall Street deal.
这些不道德的人政治力量雄厚到了 These criminals have so much political power
可以无视这片土地上 最高立法主体的 they can shut down the normal legislative process
正常的司法程序 of the highest lawmaking body in this land.
所有委员都应该仔细阅读 All the committees that should be scanning
待议的提案的每个词 应该认真投票 every word of what is being negotiated are benched.
这代表美国人民也应该认真投票 And that means the American people are benched too.
我们向宪法宣誓 We are constitutionally sworn
保护整个合众国 to protect and defend this republic
坚决抵制国内外的敌人 against all enemies foreign and domestic.
他们说这是千禧危机的重现 They say it's gonna be Y2K all over again.
这也是华尔街金融大鳄 This is the same politics of fear we are hearing
想引发的政治恐惧 from the fat-cat financial bullies from Wall Street.
我们为什么不让华尔街自己摆平这一切? Why aren't we asking Wall Street to clean up its own mess?
为什么不帮助美国民众面对破产? Why aren't we helping American families faced with bankruptcy?
为什么不减少主街的债务 而不是减少华尔街的呢? Why aren't we reducing debts from Main Street instead of Wall Street?
这是美国议会 Is this the United States Congress
还是高盛的董事会呢? or the board of directors of Goldman Sachs?
投票前夜 Moore: The night before the vote
空前人数的美国民众 the American people in unprecedented numbers
带着数百万的请愿涌入国会 flooded Capitol Hill with millions of messages
要求议会否决提案 demanding that Congress vote no.
紧急援助计划失败了 The bailout package was defeated today,
众议院否决了提案 voted down in the House of Representatives.
股票市场猛跌 The stock market plunged--
跌幅已达道琼斯指数 plunged to the single greatest point loss
单日最大跌幅 in the Dow average in one day ever.
问题是: The question is this:
失败的紧急救援计划是否会在五周后 is the failure of the bailout reason enough
重新被所有的在野党成员投票通过? to vote all the incumbents out of office in 5 weeks?
十二票否决 12 votes killed it.
美国民众要求议员们 So did the voices of a lot of the American people
否决提案的呼声很高 who called their representatives and said no.
国会否决了 Then Congress voted no.
今晚国会离开 Tonight Congress has left town.
这是对国会和华尔街的非难 Moore: It was a rebuke that Congress and Wall Street
这在以前是少有的 had rarely, if ever, experienced.
花旗银行备忘录曾警告: It was what the Citibank memo had warned against:
如果农民选择 That if the peasants ever chose
行使民主权利 to exercise their democratic rights,
财富的掠夺就会结束 the pillaging by the wealthy would be over.
Paulson和公司折回国会 So Paulson and company headed back up to Capitol Hill.
比你说一声"请检查"还快 And faster than you can say "Check, please,"
在共和党的帮助下 达成了幕后协议 they cut a backroom deal with the help of the Democrats.
就这样取代了投票 This issue supersedes an election.
我们需要通过这项提案 我们要迅速行动 We need to get this right. We need to do it quickly.
我同意部长的说法 I agree with the secretary.
这几十亿钱的去向都会公开 It's not gonna openly cost all these hundreds of billions.
大部分经济将恢复 也许是全部 We will recover most of it, maybe all of it.
民主党变成了 Kaptur: The Democrats became
共和党总统账单的 the delivery man for a bill
传递人 for the Republican president.
总统和总统之间要通话 The presidents and presidents- to-be made phone calls
成员... 我知道至少两个成员 and members-- I know at least 2 members
对美国参议院有兴趣 who have an interest in the US Senate,
并且作出承诺投票支持 and promises were made.
没多久 国会 Moore: Within days, the Congress
做出了惊人的转变 did an amazing about-face
拨给银行了他们要的七千亿 and gave the banks the 700-plus billion they wanted,
民众被坑了 the people be damned.
这次投票 二百六十三个通过 On this vote the yeas are 263,
一百七十一个不通过 提议通过 the nays are 171. The motion is adopted.
什么时候发生什么事情 什么人可以参与进来 It was very carefully planned to happen when it did,
这些都是精心计划过的 to involve the players that it did.
人民的请愿被小心的处理 The message was carefully handled.
他们想要什么权利 国会都会支持 They had Congress right where they wanted them.
你不觉得它只是意外? You don't think it was just happenstance?
不 No.
这个就像智能操纵 This was almost like an intelligence operation
当权者们相互勾结 that had to be coordinated at the highest levels.
整个这场灾难告诉你 This whole fiasco shows you
这其中有一些势力... that there are some forces--
这些势力并不民主 That are not democratic.
对 这股势力在幕后 Right. That are in control.
操控着一切 Big time.
他们运作地很熟练 的确很成功 They did a masterful job. Very well executed.
你认为 Do you think it's too harsh
把这事称作政变过分吗? to call what has happened here a coup d'état?
金融政变? A financial coup d'état?
不过分 因为这就是事实 No, because I think that's what's happened.
- 一场金融政变? - 对 - A financial coup d'état? - Yeah.
我同意这个说法 I could agree with that.
我同意这么说是因为国会里的人 I could agree with that because the people here
说话并不算数 really aren't in charge.
华尔街才说了算 Wall Street is in charge.
我们的钱哪去了? Where's our money?
我不知道 I don't know.
花旗集团花了5千万美元 Reporter: Citigroup is spending $50 million
买了一架企业专机 on a luxury corporate jet.
你不知道? 但你... You don't know? But you're the person--
你是负责人啊... 他们让你负责查清楚 you're in charge of-- they put you in charge to find out.
高盛集团也留出 Reporter: Goldman Sachs has set aside
68亿用来支付奖金 6.8 billion for bonuses.
但财政部遵循不闻不问的原则 But Treasury followed a don't-ask-don't-tell policy.
他们并不问各大银行 They didn't ask the banks
这些钱将怎么花 what they were going to do with the money.
既然不问 那银行也不用回答 And not having asked them, the banks are not required to tell.
美国国际集团在河谷胜地举行泳池会议... AIG poolside meetings at a Valley resort...
我们得到消息称有73人 We getting words that 73 people
每人拿到了至少一百万美元 received at least $1 million apiece.
为什么财政部 Why would the Department of Treasury
不要求银行说清楚 not require the banks to tell them
他们拿着我们的钱都做了什么? what they're doing with our money?
这个问题你得问财长鲍尔森 You're going to have to ask Secretary Paulson that question.
因为我问过他这个问题 Because I've asked that question
而且是以国会监督小组组长的身份问的 in my role as head of the Congressional Oversight Panel,
但到现在我还没有听到答复 可能你试试会好些 and so far I haven't gotten an answer. Maybe you'll get a better one.
(phone ringing)
下午好 这里是汉克鲍尔森办公室 Woman: Good afternoon. Hank Paulson's office.
你好 我是Michael Moore Yeah, this is Michael Moore.
我想和鲍尔森先生通话 I'd like to talk to Mr. Paulson.
- 不好意思 请再报一遍您的姓名 - Michael Moore - I'm sorry. Your name again? - Michael Moore.
- Michael Moore? - 对 - Michael Moore? - Yup.
喂? 喂? - (hangs up) - Hello? Hello?
他们拿着我们的钱还这么干太过分啦 This is crazy what they're doing with our money.
要是我能把那些钱要回来... If I could get them to actually give the money back--
那太好了 I'd be in favor of that.
我们要拿回属于美国人民的钱 We're here to get the money back for the American people.
先生 我了解 但你不能进来 I understand, sir, but you can't come in.

- 把袋子拿上去? - 不可能 - Take it up there? - Absolutely not.

你不能帮我把美国人民的钱拿回来？ You can't help you get the money?
我不能 I can't help you get the money.
如果我现在冲进去呢? What would happen if I made a run for it right now?
所以我去了另一家银行 Moore: So I went to another bank.
我们想把属于我们的钱拿回来 We want our money back.
所有银行我都去了 I went to all the banks.
- 你见过这个人? - 嗯 - You've seen this guy? - Yeah.
我们想公民逮捕此人 (公民逮捕:公民有权逮捕其认为有罪的人) Okay, we're here to make a citizen's arrest, actually.
把钱从窗户上扔下来就行 Just drop it from the windows.
每到一处... And everywhere I went...
我都得到同样的回应 I got the same reaction.
我想对整个董事会 We're actually here to make a citizen's arrest
还有高官进行公民逮捕 of the entire board of directors and the exactives here.
你干嘛不去找我的主管呢? Why don't you see my supervisor?
- 他就在那儿 - 在哪? - That's him right here. - Where's he at?
- 白衬衫 蓝领带那个? - 对 - In the white shirt? Blue tie? - Yup.
- 是他 - 谢顶那个? - That's him. - Receding hairline?
他们拿着钱收购其他公司 They're using the money to buy other companies.
这可是我们的钱啊 This is our money.
啊 警察都来了啊 Oh, this is a police officer.
我想对总裁Blankfein先生 I wanted to make a citizen's arrest of the CEO.
实施公民逮捕 - Mr. Blankfein. - (chuckles)
但既然你在这儿 也许你能帮我 But you're here, so maybe you could help me.
- 我们出去说 - 拿着我们纳税人1700亿美元啊 - Let's do it outside. - $170 billion of our taxpayer money.
- 先生 你不能进这栋大楼 - 但我要进来逮捕啊 - You're not allowed in the building, sir. - But I'm here to make an arrest.

出去怎么逮 他们就在楼上 I can't make it outside. They're upstairs.
先生 那我可要抓人了 I'll make an arrest, sir.
你能抓人吗? You can arrest somebody?
如果你能 那我也能 If you can arrest somebody, I can arrest somebody.
先生 请离开这里 Sir, leave the building, sir.
你还想让谁离开? Who else do you want to leave the building?
你的摄像师和工作人员 出来吧 先生 Your cameraman and your crew. Come on out, sir.
他们不说英语 Donde? They don't speak English. Donde?
他们违反了多项法律 你知道么? These guys have broken so many laws, you know?
这可是钱啊 这是盗窃 欺诈 This is money. It's theft, it's fraud.
我要把钱带回财政部 I'm gonna take it back to the US Treasury
就用这辆车 right in this car.
很安全 你放心 It's safe. You can trust me.
(grunts)
这提示我们 There's just these little hints
一些不可思议的事 that the unimaginable
也能发生 也就是说... could occur, which is that...
普通人 people in general
普通的美国民众 in the United States could actually
也会对有钱人 become angry
发火 at the wealthy.
你们无耻! 你们无耻! Shame on you! Shame on you!
几十年来 Shawn: People who became rich in this country
这个国家富起来的人们 in the last decades were not even making
不仅没为大众谋福祉 the things that everybody loved.
反而一直在耍弄手腕 They were playing games
结果是伤害了所有人 that ended up actually harming everybody.
(chanting)
因此美国经济产生了一种弊病 So some kind of disease has entered into the economy.
美国民众居然和富人对立起来 这不太正常 Moore: It was unusual for Americans to turn against the rich
因为摆在我们面前的诱饵一直告诉我们 because of the carrot that had always been held out in front of us,
有一天我们也会像他们一样变得富有 that we too could be one of them someday.
但现在人们开始怀疑了 People were starting not to believe that.
这就让富人害怕了 And that frightened the rich.
因为在不远处 他们听到了一些声音 Because off in the distance they heard something coming
不是干马丁尼酒的声音 and it wasn't another dry martini.
而是愤怒的人群 It was the friggin' people.
我们要引领这个国家 We are ready to take this country
向一个全新的方向前进 in a fundamentally new direction.
这就是我们的国家正在发生的一切 That's what's happening in America right now.
美国正在改变 Change is what's happening in America.
纯属狗屁 Moore: Holy shit.
这可不是华尔街想要的 This was not what Wall Street wanted.
可万一他赢了怎么办? What if he won?
这会给他们的生活带来什么影响? What would happen to their way of life?
于是他们故技重施 So they did what they always do.
赞助他的选举 要多少给多少 They threw as much money at him as they could.
高盛成了他的第一大私人出资方 Goldman Sachs became his number-one private contributor
总计捐助了一百万美元 with nearly $1 million in contributions.
但他们还是不确定他会干什么 But yet they still weren't sure what he would do.
他到底如何看待他们 How did he really feel about them
以及他们的生活方式呢? and their way of life?
我的看法就是 只要经济形势对底层人民有利 My attitude is that if the economy is good for folks from the bottom up,
那就对所有人都有利 it's gonna be good for everybody.
共享财富符合大众的利益
奥巴马议员想分财了 Senator Obama is running to spread the wealth.
水管工乔对他说 Joe the Plumber said to him
他的想法听着像社会主义 that plan sounded like socialism.
(Russian music playing)
我爱美国 Joe: I love America.
我要确保美国是民主社会而非社会主义社会 I want to make sure it stays a democracy and not a socialist society.
我认为如果奥巴马赢得初选他就会宣传社会主义 I really think he's gonna bring socialism if he gets half a chance.
我根本就不相信奥巴马 I don't trust Obama at all.
我四十年前离开欧洲 I left Europe 4 decades ago
因为在那里 社会主义根本不给人任何机会 because socialism has killed opportunities there.
"有人必须放弃自己的一份蛋糕 "Someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie
才能让他人获得更多" so someone else can have more."
但我当然想要整块蛋糕了 I want all my pie.
巴拉克·奥巴马是个社会主义者 就这么简单 Barack Obama is a socialist, it's that simple.
对他的中伤并不起作用 Moore: The scare campaign wasn't working.
实际上 他们越说奥巴马是社会主义者 In fact, the more they called Obama a socialist,
他的民调支持率就越高 the more he went ahead in the polls.
而且这个词听得太多 And by using the word so much,
人们反而对它产生了好奇心 it made a new generation curious about what that was.
比如 很少人知道 For instance, few of them knew
美国参议院中还真有一个社会主义者 there was actually a socialist in the United States Senate.
毫无疑问他来自佛蒙特州 该州承认同性恋婚姻 Of course he was from the gay state of Vermont.
(moos)
你说自己是个社会主义者 社会主义是什么呢 You say that you're a socialist. Tell me what that means.
我是个民主社会主义者 I'm a democratic socialist,
我认为政府的职能是代表 which means that the function of government is to represent
中等收入的工人 middle income and working people
而不是权贵 rather than just the wealthy and the powerful.
但现在情况是 One of the things that we've done here,
我们太偏信贪婪的人了 we've become very religious in worshipping greed.
看看我们的杂志封面 We put on the front pages of the magazines
都是些挣了数亿的富人 guys who have made billions of dollars.
我们忽视警察 消防员 教师 或者护士 We ignore the cops, the firemen, the teachers, the nurses
他们每天都为提高人民生活水平做着贡献 who every day are doing so much in improving the lives of people.
我们的价值观需要改变 We've got to change our value system.
嗯 这听起来不错 Moore: Hmm, that doesn't sound too bad.
我是说 听起来也许我们该这么试试 I mean, it sounds like something maybe we should try.
几个月之内 Within a few months,
拉斯姆森民调显示 the Rasmussen poll reported
只有37%的年轻人 that only 37% of young adults
倾向于资本主义而非社会主义 now favor capitalism over socialism.
我希望今后的经济... I hope the economy will...
(people cheering)
11点 奥巴马 At 11:00 we project Barack Obama
成功当选美国总统 President-Elect of the United States of America.
(cheering)
仅仅在两年前 Moore: Just 2 years earlier
如果有人说黑人会当总统 had anyone predicted this moment,
人们一定会以为他疯了 they would have been considered crazy.
但事情就是变得这么快 But that's how fast things change.
就在这一瞬间 It was in an instant
我们和旧美国永远再见了 a farewell to the old America.
奥巴马的胜利振奋了全国 The country was electrified by his victory.
人们突然受到启发 And suddenly people were inspired
纷纷尝试原本不可能做的事 to do things they never would have done before.
就像底特律的司法官 Like the sheriff in Detroit
他决定违反法律 who decided it was time to break the law
去帮助美国人民 in order to help the people.
银行居然向政府寻求援助 Warren Evans: Doesn't it seem kind of strange to you
你认为这不奇怪吗? 我认为他们不应该这样 they would seek a government bailout? I thought that's not what they do.
1-0-1广播 1-0-1 radio.
我认为自由市场就是成败全靠自己 要么沉下去 要么自己游上来 I thought the free market is you sink or swim.
但我只看到他们沉下去了 哭得像个婴儿 I just saw them sink and cry like babies
向周围人求救 for assistance from everybody else.
今天我将停止Wayne县 Today I will be stopping all mortgage foreclosure sales
所有的抵押期满拍卖 in Wayne County.
我不能眼睁睁地看着任何一个家庭 I cannot in clear conscience allow anymore families
因房屋抵押期满 而失去自己的家园 to lose their homes through foreclosure sales.
各大银行 Moore: What must the banks have thought
看着保护自己利益的法律被废止 seeing the law that was set up to protect their interests
他们又将作何感想? being subverted?
你认为底特律对自由市场失望了吗? Do you think the free market has failed Detroit?
嗯 我认为整个国家都对自由市场失望了 Well, I mean, I think that the free market failed the country.
你也知道 这太疯狂了 You know, this is crazy.
居民区彻底毁了 Neighborhoods that are completely destroyed
因为无数的房屋都因抵押期满而无法赎回 because too many homes have been foreclosed.
然后你会想 这到底是美国 And then you wonder, is this really America
还是第三世界国家? or is this a third-world country?
我们到底在干什么? Exactly what are we doing here?
现在情况变得太糟了 人们只能抗议 Until things get so bad that people can do nothing but protest,
这就是革命 and then those are called revolutions.
有时 革命开始在 Moore: And sometimes revolutions begin
在不太可能的地方 in unlikely places.
醒醒 Wake up.
迈阿密的Trody一家 Moore: Living in the back of a truck
生活在一辆卡车箱里 银行没收了他们拥有了22年的家 after a bank foreclosed on the home they had owned for 22 years,
在邻居的帮助下 the Trody family of Miami, with the help of their neighbors,
他们用自己的方式解决问题 took matters into their own hands.
我们代表这个家庭 这个社区 On behalf of this family and this community,
将这所房子物归原主 we liberate this home for this family.
把标志撕下来 拿掉它 Cut the sign down. Take it off.
耶! - (applause) - Yay!
当我喊社区 你们喊力量 When I say community, y'all say power.
- 社区! - 力量! - Community! - Power!
没过多久 那个赶走他们的 Moore: It wasn't long before the guy from the bank
银行职员回来了 who had evicted them came back.
看到这了? See this?
我想让你给它拍张照片 I want you to go ahead and take a picture of that.
你们非法侵入 You're trespassing.
我们驱逐了这家人 但他们又搬回来了 We did an eviction here and the people went back inside the property.
是的 所以我需要警方协助 Yes. So I need police assistance.
当所有房屋都空了 When all these houses are empty
所有其他人的房子开始贬值 the value of everybody else's house goes down.
所以如果你能让这些人待在屋子里 So if you can keep these people in this house
那不仅仅将帮助他们... that will help not only them...
所以你看 情况是... So you see, the situation is that the people--
如果银行让他们回到屋里 if the bank lets them go back inside,
那银行就失去了向其他人出售房子的机会 then the bank misses the opportunity to sell the house to somebody else.
现在银行在出售这么多的房子 The banks are selling so many houses right now.
恩 如果银行让每个人免费住回到房子里 Well, if the bank lets everybody get back inside the house for free--
那人们就有地方住了 Then people will have places to live.
人民反击是一个不寻常的情景 Moore: People fighting back was an unusual sight.
因此 警方出动了9辆警车 So 9 police cars responded to the call.
对这个居民区的人来说 Considering the neighborhood,
警察从未这么积极过 the response time was impressive.
- 轮不到你管 - 我没说我要管 - You are not in charge. - I'm not saying I'm in charge.
我是说 她不想被孤立 你不必回答任何问题 I'm saying she doesn't want to be isolated. You don't have to answer any questions.
你不必对他们说任何东西 好不? You don't have to say anything to them, okay?
但Trodys一家坚守阵地 Moore: But the Trodys stood their ground.
我们没有其他地方可去 We don't have nowhere else to go.
- 这是备份计划 - 我们被迫生活在一辆卡车内 - This was the backup plan. - We're forced to live inside of a truck.
这是我们的B计划 我们没有任何C计划 This was our plan B. We don't have no plan C.
这是我们的祖母 你们是不对的 That is our grandma and it's not right.
她住在这个屋里22年了 你们要把她赶出去? She's been in this house for 22 years and y'all gonna put her out?
你每天把人们赶出家 How do you feel putting people out of their homes
你能心安理得吗? every single frickin' day?
你应该待在家里 而不是做些那样的事 You should rather be home instead of do something like that.
联邦政府放在银行的钱去哪了? Where is the money the federal government put in the bank?
我们应该告诉你 你们才是盗贼 因为这是我们的房子 We should be telling you that you're trespassing because this is our house.
(crowd yelling)
☆ 像树一样扎根 像树一样扎根 ☆ "Rooted like a tree, rooted like a tree "
☆ 我们在这里 ☆ "We are here "
☆ 坚强站起来 ☆ "Stand up strong..."
我们走 Let's go.
- 我们做得好 我们做得好 - 好 - We did good. We did good. - All right.
警方和银行职员被赶走了 Moore: The police and the man from the bank were sent packing.
没有力量大得过人民的力量 Ain't no power like the power of the people.
而人民的力量永不停息 And the power of the people don't stop. Say what?
没有力量大得过人民的力量 Ain't no power like the power of the people.
而人民的力量永不停息 And the power of the people don't stop. Say what?
不要离开你的家 Don't leave your home.
因为你知道什么? Because you know what?
那些公司说 他们拥有你们的抵押契据 When those companies say they have your mortgage,
除非他们能够找出这些契据 unless you have a lawyer that can put his finger
否则从法律上 这样的契据就不存在 or her finger on that mortgage, you don't have that mortgage.
其实他们根本无法在华尔街找到契据 And you're gonna find that they can't find the paper up there on Wall Street.
所以我对美国人民说 在你自己的家里安居 So I say to the American people, you be squatters in your own homes.
你应该住在俄亥俄州和密歇根州 Don't you leave in Ohio and Michigan,
印第安纳州和伊利诺伊州和其他所有地方 in Indiana and Illinois and all these other places
在那里 我们的人民像牲口一样被对待 where our people are being treated like chattel.
美国国会受阻了 And this Congress is stymied.
哇 Moore: Wow.
不是每一天你都能看到国会成员 It's not every day you get to see a member of Congress
鼓励公开叛乱 encouraging open rebellion.
回到芝加哥 Back in Chicago,
共和门窗的工人们 the workers at Republic Windows & Doors
有一个好主意 had a bright idea.
他们再三考虑后决定 They decided that on second thought,
在未被告知的情况下被解雇 it wasn't okay to be fired without notice,
被剥夺他们的度假和遣散费 to be denied their vacation and severance pay
以及他们的医疗福利被切断 这是不行的 and to have their medical benefits cut off.
因此 他们想出了一个计划 So they came up with a plan.
告诉美国银行和公司的所有者 Tell Bank of America and the owners of the company
这是美国新的一天 that it was a new day in America.
他们不会离开大楼 They weren't going to leave the building
直到他们得到了他们该得的工资 until they were paid what they were owed.
是的 这是一个很好的老式静坐罢工 Yes, it was a good old fashioned sit-down strike.
我们知道 Man: We understand that perhaps
可能公司是有一些经营失策 some bad business deals were made.
但你知道么? 决策不是我们做的 But guess what? We don't make business deals.
我们只做门窗 We make windows and doors.
我们为什么要受到惩罚 Why should we be punished?
工会组织者和工人 Moore: The union organizers and the workers
为必将发生的警察殴打做准备 prepared for a police assault that was sure to come.
我要抓住这个机会 I'm gonna take the chance.
你愿意被逮捕? You're prepared to be arrested?
如果有必要 我愿意被逮捕 I am prepared to be arrested if it's necessary.
我们昨天就在这了 我们不会去任何地方 We've been here since yesterday and we aren't going anywhere.
我们心意已决 We are committed to this.
没过多久 媒体露面了 Moore: It wasn't long before the media showed up.
考虑到国家对救市的不满情绪 And given the mood of the country toward the bailout,
即使是电视节目主持人 也已经耗尽了对银行的同情 even the TV anchors had run out of sympathy for the banks.
在芝加哥 一群普通工人眼睁睁看到 In Chicago, a group of factory workers watched like the rest of us
政府用纳税人的血汗钱 救助各个银行 as taxpayers bailed out the financial industry.
现在 这些下岗工人正在要求美国银行 Now these laid-off workers are demanding Bank of America
花一些救助金到他们身上 spend some of its bailout money on them.
上面写着 "美国强盗银行" It says "Bank Robbers of America."
看 如果我们纳税人 Look, if we the taxpayers are going to provide
要为像美国银行这样的公司提供救助 a bailout for companies like Bank of America,
那么 至少他们可以做的是 then the least they can do is use those funds
把那些资金用到美国工人和公司上 on American workers and companies.
250亿美元用到美国银行 Woman: $25 billion to Bank of America.
当他们这么做时 人们在晚上怎么睡觉 How do people sleep at night when they act like that?
我不理解 I don't get it.
因为 如果没有任何工作 Because what's the point of bailing them out
那么拯救他们的意义是什么 if there aren't any jobs?
罢工一天天继续 Moore: The strike went on day after day.
警方还没有到来 The police had not yet come.
但是一个芝加哥钢铁工人的儿子来了 But the son of a Chicago steelworker did.
他也正好是在芝加哥的主教 He just also happened to be the bishop in Chicago.
女士们 先生们 Ladies and gentlemen,
我是主教James Wilkowski I am Bishop James Wilkowski.
我知道你们都在经历 I know that you are all undergoing
一个巨大的考验 a great trial.
你们在教导 You are teaching
我们的年轻人 to our young people
勇于挑战世间的不公 that it is just
是正义的 to challenge that which is unfair.
我在芝加哥偏远的东南部长大 I grew up on the far southeast side of Chicago
我看到了 and I saw what happened
当所有的钢铁厂消失时发生的事 when all the steel mills disappeared.
我看到了 And I saw the impact that it had
它对家庭的影响 on families.
但是这一次 But this time
我们和你们在一起 we are with you.
我们不会放弃你们 And we will not abandon you.
以圣父 圣子 In the name of the Father and the Son
以及圣灵的名义 阿门 and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
主保佑你 The body of Christ.
提到芝加哥 President Obama: When it comes to the situation
那儿的工人 here in Chicago with the workers
要求拿到他们应得的工资和救助 who are asking for the benefits and payments
我认为他们是绝对正确的 that they have earned, I think they're absolutely right.
(cheering)
他们的遭遇 What's happening to them is reflective of what's happening
是整个经济遭遇的反映 across this economy.
他说 "他们的遭遇..." Reporter: He said, "What's happening to them is reflective of what's happening..."
他说工人的遭遇 Reporter #2: He said what is happening to those workers
是经济中所发生的情况的反映 is reflective to what's happening across this economy.
早上我正在看奥巴马的新闻发布会 I was watching Obama's press conference this morning.
我刚起床 决定了 I just got out of bed and decided
我能做的最好的事 就是去喂饱别人 the best thing I could do was to feed people.
因此 我带了些食物 So I brought some food.
- 我带了些三明治 - 噢 好的 - I brought some sandwiches. - Oh, good.
事实上 大量的芝加哥人到场去支持工人 Moore: In fact, lots of Chicagoans showed up to support the workers.
工人们在全国已经成为 Reporter: The workers have become a national symbol
成千上万的下岗员工的国家象征 for thousands of employees laid off across the country.
静坐罢工已经受到了政治家的关注 Reporter #2: The sit-in has grabbed the attention of politicians
他们认为这个例子说明了 who believe it exemplifies an imbalance between a Wall Street
得到了政府帮助的华尔街 和受到不公待遇的大众之间 已然失去平衡 that gets government help and a Main Street that gets the shaft.
问题开始出现了 Moore: The question started to be asked:
这是工人对华尔街反抗的开始吗? Was this is the beginnings of a worker's revolt against Wall Street?
人民团结 The people united.
我们永远不会被击败 We'll never be defeated.
救助工人 而不是银行 救助工人 而不是银行 Bail out workers, not the banks. Bail out workers, not the banks.
工人们得到了大量财力物力支持 Moore: Pledges of financial support and food showed up by the truckload.
这真的超出了我们最初的想象 Woman: It's really beyond what we had at first initially imagined.
所以我们有点像在做梦 And so now we're dreaming a little bit.
我们甚至有一些探讨... 如果我们 We even had a conversation-- well, what if we just tried
像合作社一样去经营一个工厂会怎样 to run the factory like a cooperative?
我们没有钱 我们不是资本家 We don't have any money. We're not capitalists.
我们正讨论这类事情 We're having those kind of conversations
工人正在考虑它 这是一件困难的事情 and the workers are thinking about it and it's a difficult thing
因为 当你的一生 'cause, you know, if you've been told your whole life
都照着既定好的方式去做 that things are the way other people tell you they are,
要相信自己能做出些改变 to be able to think I can make it different
可不是件容易事 is quite a big deal.
我们都在国内新闻上 每个人都在看着你 We're all over the national news. Everyone is watching you
因为他们到你们的鼓舞 because they're so inspired by you. (speaks Spanish)
经过了六天的静坐罢工后 Moore: After 6 days of the sit-in
美国银行决定让步 Bank of America decided enough was enough.
最好现在付清这些工人的工资 Better to pay off these workers now
希望他们的小革命消失 and hope their little revolution goes away.
因此 银行和公司同意了所有工人的要求 And so the bank and the company agreed to all the worker's demands.
我们成功了! 我们成功了! Yes we did! Yes we did!
每个工人的资助包 The average package for each worker
将非常接近6000美元 will be very close to $6,000.
但不仅仅关乎钱 But this is about more than just money.
这关系到 It's about what can be achieved
当工人们组织起来维护正义 会取得什么成果 when workers organize and stand up for justice.
尽管去斗争... 斗争 斗争 斗争 斗争 斗争 Just to fight-- fight fight fight fight fight
就是为了获得最基本的 just to get the most basic thing
人们理应拥有的 that people should take for granted
也是他们合法拥有的一切 and that's legally theirs.
我们如此努力斗争 只是为了那些生活最基本的东西 We just fight so hard just for the most basic things in life.
这是一场发生在密歇根弗林特的斗争 我们再熟悉不过了 Moore: It's a fight we knew all too well in Flint, Michigan.
因为在这里 我的叔叔和他的同事们 For it was here that my uncle and his fellow workers
第一次打击了强大的企业利益 first brought down the mighty corporate interests
那控制了他们生活的东西 that dominated their lives.
1936年的倒数第两天 It was the day before New Year's Eve in 1936.
数以百计的男女接管了在弗林特的通用汽车公司 Hundreds of men and women took over the GM factories in Flint
并占领了44天 and occupied them for 44 days.
他们是第一个击败工业公司的联盟 They were the first union that beat an industrial corporation.
他们的行动最终使得 And their actions eventually resulted
中产阶级形成了 in the creation of a middle class.
但回首在弗林特静坐罢工的日子 But back in these days of the Flint sit-down strike,
警察和公司保安不会只是袖手旁观 the police and the company thugs were not going to just stand by.
在晚上发生流血冲突后 密歇根州州长 After a bloody battle one evening, the Governor of Michigan,
得到美国总统富兰克林·罗斯福的支持 with the support of the President of the United States
派遣出国民警卫队 Franklin Roosevelt, sent in the National Guard.
但士兵的枪没有指向工人 But the guns of the soldiers weren't used on the workers.
他们指向警察 They were pointed at the police
被雇佣的打手 and the hired goons,
来告诫他们别管这些工人 warning them to leave these workers alone.
罗斯福先生相信里面的人 For Mr. Roosevelt believed that the men inside
有权利获得不平等的赔偿 had a right to a redress of their grievances.
七年后, 罗斯福总统病得很严重 7 years later, President Roosevelt was too sick
以至不能到国会大厦发表年度国情咨文 to go up to the Capitol and give his annual State of the Union Address.
女士们先生们 Ladies and gentlemen,
我是美国总统 the President of the United States.
亲自发表年度咨文已经成为我的习惯 It has been my custom to deliver these annual messages in person.
所以他在白宫通过收音机发表 Moore: So he gave it from the White House over the radio.
结束时他要求新闻摄影机 When it was over he asked the newsreel cameras
进入他房内拍摄 因为他想让美国人民 to step into his room because he wanted the American people
看到他讲话中这个特殊的部分 to see one particular part of his speech.
美国总统做出了革命性的举措 The President of the United States then took the radical step
向宪法提出 of proposing a second Bill of Rights
第二条权利法案 to the Constitution.
如今某些经济理论 In our day certain economic truths
已经不证自明的被接受 have become accepted as self-evident.
第二条权利法案 A second Bill of Rights
以安全和繁荣为新的标准 under which a new basis of security and prosperity
适用于全体公民 can be established for all
不论身份种族信仰 regardless of station or race or creed.
它包括: Among these are:
公民有权获得有偿工作; The right to a useful and remunerative job;
有权获得足够的报酬 The right to earn enough to provide adequate food
以满足其衣食休闲需要 and clothing and recreation;
农民有权利 The right of every farmer
种植销售产品 to raise and sell his products
获得利润 保障其家人 at a return which will give him and his family
认为满意的生活; a decent living;

有权进行自由交易 to trade in an atmosphere of freedom,
不受任何不公平竞争 freedom from unfair competition and domination
及海内外垄断企业影响; by monopolies at home or abroad;
家庭有权获得其认为满意的住宅; The right of every family to a decent home;
有权得到合适的医疗护理 The right to adequate medical care
和享有健康生活; and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health;

使其免受年老 from the economic fears of old age,
病痛 事故 sickness, accidents
及失业带来的忧患; and unemployment;
享有受良好教育的权利 The right to a good education.
所有的这些意味着安定 All of these rights spell security.
战争胜利后 And after this war is won,
我们必须为这些权利的向前发展 we must be prepared to move forward
做好准备 in the implementation of these rights
人类快乐幸福的新目标 to new goals of human happiness and wellbeing.
因为如果国内没有安全感 For unless there is security here at home,
世界不可能持续和平 there cannot be lasting peace in the world.
罗斯福一年多后去世 Moore: Roosevelt would be dead in little over a year.
他没亲眼看到战争的结束 He would not live to see the end of the war.
也没看到新的人权法案的颁布 Nor would there be any enactment of his new Bill of Rights.
如果他活着而且达到预期目的 Had he lived and succeeded,
每一个美国人 不论种族 every American, regardless of race,
将会享有自己满意的工作 would have had a right to a decent job...
供生活所需的工资... a livable wage...
普及的医疗保健... universal health care...
良好的教育... a good education...
买得起的住宅... an affordable home...
带薪休假... a paid vacation...
充足的养老金 and an adequate pension.
所有的这些都没实现 None of this would come to pass.
没有人向美国人保证这些 No American would be guaranteed any of this.
但欧洲和日本的人民 But the people of Europe and Japan
享受所有这些权利 got every one of these rights.
这是如何发生的呢 How did that happen?
战后 罗斯福政府人员 After the war, the people of Roosevelt's administration
远赴重洋 帮助重建欧洲 went overseas to help rebuild Europe.
重新制定了战败国 During this time new constitutions were written
德国 意大利和日本的宪法 for the defeated nations of Germany, Italy and Japan.
意大利宪法 The Italian constitution
保证所有妇女享有平等权 guaranteed all women equal rights.
这一年是1947 And this was 1947.
德国宪法宣称 为了公共利益 The German constitution said that the state has the right
国家有权接管资产 to take over property and the means of production
和生产资料 for the common good.
日本的宪法这样写道 And here's what we wrote up for the Japanese.
所有工人有权利组成工会 All workers have a right to organize into a union.
并保障学术自由 And academic freedom is guaranteed.
接下来的65年 For the next 65 years
我们的国家 we would not become the country
没有达成罗斯福的期望 that Roosevelt wanted us to be.
而是 变成了这样 Instead, we became this...
我记得在卡特里娜洪灾中的思考 I remember thinking during the Katrina flood,
"为什么总是穷人" "Why is it always the poor
"遭受不幸?" who have to suffer the misery?
"为什么不是伯纳德·麦道夫在房顶上" Why isn't it ever Bernie Madoff up on the roof
"大声呼救?" screaming for help?
"为何不是花旗银行的老板" Or the head of Citibank
"不是在高盛集团搞对冲基金的家伙们?" or the hedge fund guys at Goldman Sachs?
"不是美国国际集团的CEO? " Or the CEO at AIG?"
决不会是那些人 对吧? It never is these guys, is it?
受苦的总是分不到饼的穷人 It's always those who never got a slice of the pie
因为那些人拿走了整个饼 because these men took it all
什么也没给穷人留下 and left them with nothing,
对他们的生死 置若罔闻 left them to die.
我不愿生活在像这样的国家 I refuse to live in a country like this.
但我不会离开 And I'm not leaving.
美国国际大厦
我们生活在世界上最富有的国家 We live in the richest country in the world.
我们所有人应该获得令人满意的工作 We all deserve a decent job,
医药保健 良好的教育 healthcare, a good education,
属于自己的家园 a home to call our own.
我们理应获得罗斯福的愿望 We all deserve FDR's dream.
很遗憾我们没有 And it's a crime that we don't have it.
我们不会有 And we never will,
只要存在牺牲多数人 as long as we have a system that enriches the few
使少数人富有的体制 at the expense of the many.
资本主义是一种罪恶 Capitalism is an evil.
你不能控制罪恶 And you cannot regulate evil.
你必须摒弃它 You have to eliminate it and replace it with something
用有利于所有人民的东西代替它 that is good for all people.
那个东西称作民主政治 And that something is called democracy.
大楼里的人 你们已犯罪 Crimes have been committed in this building.
我来对你们执行公民逮捕 I am here to make a citizen's arrest.
请下来从大楼里出来 Please come down and step away from the building.
别害怕 Do not be afraid.
联邦监狱是个不错的地方 Federal prison is a nice place.
我真的再也不能做这些了 You know, I can't really do this anymore
除非那些在电影院正在观看此片的人 unless those of you who are watching this in the theater
想加入我的队列 want to join me.
我希望你会的 I hope you will.
请赶快加入吧 And please, speed it up.
