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.
Well said Shirley Hultquist
Here’s an idea…
Next time the budget comes to a halt, let it fail and have Congress shut down “non-essential services.”
Then eliminate them permanently.
If they’re non-essential we don’t need them.
She is cute as hell, but what a loon.
A “fair” tax would be a flat tax.
ALMOST ALL NEWS IS A BAD JERRY SPRINGER EPISODE NOW
The answer to the comment in the article wondering how Carlson keeps lining up guests is that they are so arrogant in their ignorance.
Estate tax is a punishment to heirs and just plain thievery

I don’t agree with her, but gotta respect it… That lady held her own.
Reference Tucker… I liked him, but lately he is getting very leading in his interviews. Not a fan of trickery debate from a news source.
It sure is. To me it’s double taxing
She’s an idiot? And raising the death tax would not effect the 1%. That government crime would affect all of us every day people.
