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.
Looks as if Fox News is egging Tucker to be more ‘O’Reilly’ in his commentary … ie: Irrational and Combative relying on limited facts … LOL
Billie get with the program. You can not compare Trump with Sharpton. Trump pays taxes. He files tax returns. He hasn’t release them, but he doesn’t have too. And I hope he doesn’t, because it is funny to watch liberals and the MSM and RINOS cry about it, and get heartburn. Some people just love to be miserable. (You maybe one of them). Trump pays his taxes. (If he didn’t the world would hear about it). Additionally he employs hundreds of people through his companies, (men and women) and pays payroll taxes. His employees pay taxes, and their spending adds to the local economies. Now for Sharpton, we will not even go into the way he got his money. He not only owns back taxes, he has own them for years. “He just did not pay them correctly”, no he has evaded them. A federal felony. But with the Obama DOJ he didn’t have much to worry about. He may need to worry not that we have grown up law and order back. Not even a nice try Billie.
Now that we have
Hey Professor economic illiterate a-hole, “Our tax system penalizes those who are producing wealth in order to subsidize those who are only consuming it…
You cannot subsidize irresponsibility and expect people to become more responsible…
This is the age of the complaining classes, whether they are lawyers, community activists, radical feminists, race hustlers or other squeaking wheels looking for oil. … No society ever thrived because it had a large and growing class of parasites living off those who produce.” – Thomas Sowell
This idiot Libtard is nothing more than a blow-up doll with a heartbeat.
What a moron!
So, cheating the government is OK…..thank you professor. You, and Bernie and you 15% tax rate..$#%&!@*waffle.
Get your head some sunshine Ms.
Oh my Tucker, please don’t tell her we’ll do lunch, she’ll turn that into a sexual harassment lawsuit. She’s the type.
Yeah, they always more races for the next guy. With the Democrat fixation on taxes, I think we should consider a Democrat Excise Tax of say 10% to 20%. That sounds FAIR!
Tucker simply destroys liberal “philosophy”…
