00:16 Payday! Payday!
00:21 Yes, payday.
00:23 Millions of dollars pouring into the hands of the American worker.
00:26 Now in the mind of the average worker live two separate personalities.
00:31 One, the thrifty.
00:34 Wait a bit, laddie. You're going to save a bit of that, aren't you?
00:38 [makes a sound]
00:41 Oftentimes idle money burns a hole in your pocket, which brings out the other personality, the spendthrift.
00:49 Hi, big shot. Come on with me.
00:53 I'll show you how to spend your dough.
00:56 Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
01:00 I got a couple of good deets.
01:02 [makes a sound]
01:04 But laddie, I've got some better deets.
01:08 Important ones too.
01:10 When every American should pay his or her income tax gladly and proudly.
01:15 This year, thanks to Hitler and Hirohito, taxes are higher than ever before.
01:21 Will you have enough money on hand to meet your payments when they fall due?
01:25 We'll take care of that later.
01:27 Forget it, forget it.
01:28 But you don't want to forget our fighting men, do you?
01:31 No, sir.
01:33 Then you'll have to start saving right away to meet your tax payments.
01:37 [makes a sound]
01:38 Listen, chum. Spend it. It's your dough.
01:42 Yeah, it's my dough.
01:44 Aye, laddie. It's your dough, but it's your war too.
01:49 You must save for victory.
01:51 What's money for? Spend it. Shoot the works.
01:54 Nay, nay. You must save it.
01:56 Spend. Save.
01:59 Spend. Save. Spend. Save. Spend. Save. Spend. Save. Spend. Save. Save.
02:04 [makes a sound]
02:05 [crash]
02:07 Well, now what are you going to do?
02:14 Spend for the axis?
02:17 Or save for taxes?
02:22 Just remember, every dollar you spend for something you don't need is a dollar spent to help the axis.
02:29 [crash]
02:31 That's right. And every dollar you sock away for taxes is another dollar to sock the axis.
02:41 [makes a sound]
02:42 For it is your taxes, my taxes, our taxes that run the factories.
02:49 [music]

05:05 The fight for freedom.
05:07 Freedom of speech, of worship.
