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 $470,000 and higher.
She based her argument in part on the fact that wealthy individuals paid as much as 90 percent in taxes during the presidencies of Dwight Eisenhower and John Kennedy.
Find out how Carlson countered her argument and revealed her for the socialist ideologue she is on the next page.
It would seem the democrats don’t believe their c**p ideas apply to them.. California has enough millionaires who obviously aren’t paying their fair share.. the state shouldn’t be broke at all, but you see moonbeam wants to stay in office so they rich liberals aren’t required to pay their fair share I’d like to see Pelosis tax return and boxers.. their state is broke, do you ever hear them pushing for reforms or tax increases on themselves.. fucking hypocrites
Like this man
Her parents must be really proud!!
Uhhhhh what do you think trumps doing
STUPID$#%&!@* Put your money to good use, give it to me.
Hypocrite
There is a Idiot found everyday
In WWII THE 90% actually bankrupted several defense contractors. from 1953 to 1961, the top marginal rate was 91 percent, before deductions. That equals about $2 million for single earner today. HOWEVER, since Dems controlled both houses from 1947-1984. Deductions, deductibles, credits.
None Roger. These idiots think everyone else should pay more, not them.
Well, when you throw a rock st a pack of dogs, the one the yelps is the one that was hit. Obama came very close to ruining America! Tucker Carlson, while I enjoy his skewering of idiocy, is not the reason our country is where it is today. Politicians from both parties have Obama free reign for seven years to destroy America and it is going to take some time to recover.
So Todd, my huge question to you is this: Why is it ok to tax the rich at a far greater rate than middle income people? There are so many tax exemptions and write offs that a wealthy person can take that they pay far less percentage wise than middle America. One problem I have is seeing people who pay NO taxes get “refunds” while I pay in. The corruption is in the state houses and US Congress, this “professor” can squawk all she wants to about taxing wealthier persons than herself, but she avails herself to the same type of tax attorneys and accountants to avoid paying taxes as well!
