There once was
a wise bearded man...
:23:09
by the name of Karl Marx.
:23:13
He once wrote
:23:15
that workers
were paid just barely enough
:23:18
to renew their strength.
:23:23
These days we don't even get that.
:23:27
We have to scrounge to survive.
:23:31
Can't we workers do anything?
:23:34
If you only knew, my friend,
:23:37
how much blood has been spilled
:23:39
over this simple arithmetic -
among other things.
:23:42
Workers fight for their rights.
:23:45
They always have.
:23:47
What about now?
:23:49
Even now.
:23:51
Mr. Sekula,
:23:53
you say the workers are fighting.
:23:58
What about you?
:24:00
What about me?
:24:01
Well... do you... you know...
:24:08
fight?
:24:11
You...
:24:12
What?
:24:14
Listen, my boy. We've established
that we're both workers,
:24:19
so call me by my name.
:24:22
Don't call me mister.
:24:24
The "misters" around here
have all fled the country.
:24:28
Hell, I gotta run!
:24:31
- Where to?
- School.
:24:33
Berg says I've got to attend.
Says it's mandatory.
:24:36
So I go... but not often.
:24:39
- Skipping classes?
- Well...
:24:41
Don't do it, Stach. Study.
:24:44
What kind of school can it be
if the Germans allow it?
:24:48
It is what it is.
Don't waste your chance.
:24:52
Don't be a smart-aleck.
:24:54
Learn wherever you can.
