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.
its laughable…pure stupidly…parents who worked hard all their lives are forced at 90% of their estate to the government rather than family. no wonder why people stash money overseas…to protect themselves and family from lunatic fucktards such as this socialist witch.
She doesn’t have to claim deductions if she wants to pay her fair share… sounds like she is the tax dodger.
They are always happy to help the government take other people’s money, yet they always seem to know just what to best do with their own. Yet more liberal hypocrisy. First lesson liberals need to learn is that money you earn belongs to YOU, not to others and not to the government.
Democrat=Thief
So, given the math,c she we old be happy making $1 Million/year salary, with a take home pay of $100,000 vs making $450,000/year with a take home pay of only $350,000. Hmmm, since she lives in California, and has excessive income enough to be handing it out to orgs other than her own local government, somebody needs to present this to the CA governor that professors need to pay higher taxes, as they are in full agreement with, and even pushing, the philosophy, and need to set an example of how much it helps.
Rediculous, these professors mesmerize me with their lack of intellect.
LOVE Tucker Carlson … but getting sick of politics in general .. We have a chance here to make some real changes and the leaders of our country are acting like a bunch of spoiled children (spoiled RICH children) Just MY opinion 🙁
She’s a real nutty liberal who is clueless yet teaching kids. Any increase in taxes government spends recklessly….it never stimulates the economy.
I’ve seen this woman make an$#%&!@*out of herself before. I think she’s a camera hound. Ideologically quite ignorant.
its Californian…how about going down to tinsel town and see how that argument will fly…
