Sure
you
know
.
Took
me
less
than
two
years
to
damn
near
go
bankrupt
.
Had
to
sell
everything
but
my
house
to
pay
my
debts
.
"
"
You
can
’
t
take
all
the
blame
for
that
.
Fresh
out
of
the
Army
—
no
business
experience
.
And
don
’
t
forget
you
ran
smack
into
a
depression
,
only
we
called
it
recession
.
Some
pretty
seasoned
businessmen
went
under
.
"
"
I
went
under
all
right
.
It
’
s
the
first
time
in
history
a
Hawley
was
ever
a
clerk
in
a
guinea
grocery
.
"
"
Now
that
’
s
what
I
don
’
t
understand
,
Ethan
.
Anybody
can
go
broke
.
What
I
don
’
t
see
is
why
you
stay
broke
,
a
man
of
your
family
and
background
and
education
.
It
doesn
’
t
have
to
be
permanent
unless
your
blood
has
lost
its
guts
.
What
knocked
you
out
,
Ethan
?
What
kept
you
knocked
out
?
"
Ethan
started
an
angry
retort
—
Course
you
don
’
t
understand
;
you
’
ve
never
had
it
—
and
then
he
swept
a
small
circle
of
gum
wrappers
and
cigarette
butts
into
a
pyramid
and
moved
the
pyramid
toward
the
gutter
.
"
Men
don
’
t
get
knocked
out
,
or
I
mean
they
can
fight
back
against
big
things
.
What
kills
them
is
erosion
;
they
get
nudged
into
failure
.
They
get
slowly
scared
.
I
’
m
scared
.
Long
Island
Lighting
Company
might
turn
off
the
lights
.
My
wife
needs
clothes
.
My
children
—
shoes
and
fun
.
And
suppose
they
can
’
t
get
an
education
?
And
the
monthly
bills
and
the
doctor
and
teeth
and
a
tonsillectomy
,
and
beyond
that
suppose
I
get
sick
and
can
’
t
sweep
this
goddam
sidewalk
?
Course
you
don
’
t
understand
.
It
’
s
slow
.
It
rots
out
your
guts
.
I
can
’
t
think
beyond
next
month
’
s
payment
on
the
refrigerator
.
I
hate
my
job
and
I
’
m
scared
I
’
ll
lose
it
.
How
could
you
understand
that
?
"
"
How
about
Mary
’
s
mother
?
"
"
I
told
you
.
She
sits
on
it
.
She
’
ll
die
sitting
on
it
.
"
"
I
didn
’
t
know
.
I
thought
Mary
came
from
a
poor
family
.
But
I
know
when
you
’
re
sick
you
need
medicine
or
maybe
an
operation
or
maybe
a
shock
.
Our
people
were
daring
men
.
You
know
it
.
They
didn
’
t
let
themselves
get
nibbled
to
death
.
And
now
times
are
changing
.
There
are
opportunities
our
ancestors
never
dreamed
of
.
And
they
’
re
being
picked
up
by
foreigners
.
Foreigners
are
taking
us
over
.
Wake
up
,
Ethan
.
"
"
And
how
about
the
refrigerator
?
