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.
Eliminate some of these worthless departments. Education, energy, DEA, EPA.

The US has had the highest corporate tax for many years. In spite of the left claiming it is for cheap labor, most companies leave due to high taxes and regulations, ( also highest in world.)
Her plan to raise taxes on wealthy will have a similar effect. Thus causing less wealth in the US. It actually will have the opposite effect as to what she believes.
IdiotD
Idiot!
Moronic liberals who seem to think they have the rights to other people’s money. They never change.
Planned parenthood is not the poor!
It’s always raise taxes on someone else, not me. Put your money where your mouth is and give the government more of your money. I’m sick of paying for a bloated overspending government. It’s not a taxing problem, it’s a spending problem. Stop spending money you don’t have!!
His guest keep coming because they are not as smart as their ego tells them they are.
Sounds like somebody in the top one percent, went and pissed in her Corn Flakes.
