In large financial institutions, however, the incentive to gamble at taxpayers' expense does not apply only to managers it extends to bondholders, who are de facto protected by the government.
Однако в крупных финансовых учреждениях не только менеджеры подвержены искушению сыграть за счет налогоплательщиков это также применимо и к держателям облигаций, кто де факто защищен правительством.

Besides, folks would always want to drink and gamble and rut, regardless of who they bowed their knees to or in whose name their taxes were collected.
Опять же люди всегда хотят есть, пить, гулять и играть, кто в карты, кто в кости, независимо от того, перед кем они гнут спины и от чьего имени собираются налоги.

I'm taking if it were not that I abominate the pitiful and character-destroying vice of gambling, I'd say that I'm taking such a terrible gamble that it frightens me!
Я... если б не мое отвращение к этому презренному, растлевающему души пороку, именуемому азартной игрой, - я сказала бы, что веду такую рискованную игру, что мне самой страшно.

The rioters had been a gamble, and a bold one, and the Whigs had hoped to ruin the Tories’ lead.

If I was a suspicious dog, I'd wonder if he knew that she'd come back for him if he was really in trouble, if he decided to gamble everything on it . . .
Будь я чуть помнительнее, то решил бы, что он знал. Знал, что она придет к нему, если он попадет в беду. Если он рискнет ради нее своей жизнью…»

Moreover, I was going to gamble, not for myself but for Prince Sergay, and with his money; I can't explain what was the attraction, but it was an irresistible attraction.
