In a fitting topic for the income tax filing deadline, Tucker Carlson roasted a California politics professor on Tucker Carlson Tonight last evening for claiming wealthy Americans are not paying their “fair share” in income taxes.
Caroline Heldman, an assistant professor of politics at Occidental College in Los Angeles, argued for radically hiking taxes on taxpayers in the top one percent of income, those earning $470,000 and higher.
She based her argument in part on the fact that wealthy individuals paid as much as 90 percent in taxes during the presidencies of Dwight Eisenhower and John Kennedy.
Find out how Carlson countered her argument and revealed her for the socialist ideologue she is on the next page.
Such a nut. Welfare does not help people improve their lives, it makes them lazy and dependent on others. Anyone receiving welfare that is able to work should work. No jobs? Pay them to clean streets, yards, anything but sitting on their asses.
Oh I forgot. More free higher education? Are you kidding? Higher education where? All the c**p I see being taught is how to look for a safe place. Something free and how to be a failure
Taxation that she wants will drive tax payers out of the country . Silly rabbit
I’d bang
What a fool. And this intelligence is what passes for a professor nowadays. Yicks. Makes since though considering this is the college O-ding dong went to.
While I TOTALLY disagree with this professors suggestions, just to be clear she was saying that the top tier tax rate should kick in on income above $450,000. Still ridiculous, and if you played that out on the scenario proposed of a $1,000,000 earner it would be unfair and choke the economy. I say get rid of the tax loopholes or go to a flat tax and let each keep what they’ve earned.
So why would anyone work if they had to give away the vast majority of their money?!?! I sure as hell wouldn’t!
GOVERMENT DOES NOT STIMULATE OUR ECONOMY. JOBS AND LOWER TAXES FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS AND POOR IS WHAT GETS OUR ECONOMY GOING. STUPID LIBERALS HAVE THERE HEADS UP THERE BUTTS.
Ding bat.
This looney nut is a professor ? Oh man we’re in trouble!!!!!
