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.
Another left wing nut job.
She states she gives to charities…that’s a tax write off…what a hypacrite
The abysmal ignorance of the loony left about economic issues will always show itself if you ask the right questions.
How does she know that the 1% doesn’t give to the poor? Remember Romney gave more than Obama and Biden combined!
Typical liberal response. “I’m not talking about MY money. I’m talking about the rich people’s money.”
Can’t fix stupid!
Trump is working on cutting government. All fed agencies have until 30 June to submit their plans for reduction.
She is an idiot
I’m curious how Ticker keeps getting guests.
He destroys their ridiculous positions night after night.
Yet they still keep coming on.
Ahhh! 15 minutes.
So she wants hard working entrepreneurs, who are rich to pay 80%of their income to enrich lazy politicians pockets, because let be sincere politicians would never fix anything, but give themselves raises or give raises to the public union buddies and never fix anything, look at California, where is the money from the previous prop laws pass to fix the roads ,is in their pockets,or welfare programs for the illegal aliens. Government employees and politicians should pay 80% of taxes ,since they only work 20% or do 20% service. .
