Watch: Fox News Host Just Destroyed Liberal Guest With Seven-Word Question She Can’t Answer
Amid widespread civil unrest concentrated within college communities across the nation, one group of university students is making a bold demand for three specific – and costly – federal benefits.
Keely Mullen, who serves as the Million Student March’s national organizer, spoke to Fox Business Network’s Neil Cavuto regarding the group’s list of demands.
“Um, well, so the movement, the Million Student march is a movement for a more equitable and fair system of education,” Mullen insisted, “as opposed to the really corporate model we have now.”
She went on to list the three demands: “Free public college, cancellation of student debt and a $15 an hour minimum wage for people who work on the campus.”
Cavuto immediately steered the conversation toward how Mullen envisioned such a plan might be funded:
And how’s that going to be paid?
The guest took a pregnant pause before suggesting that she did not understand the question. Finally pressed to name a source for the incalculable new revenue stream needed to enact her utopian dream, Mullen acknowledged that she is anxious to see America’s greedy rich have their wealth confiscated.
“Um, the one percent of people in society,” she said, “that are hoarding the wealth and really sort of causing a catastrophe that students are facing. I mean we have a relationship now where one percent of the population owns more wealth than the 99 percent combined.”
Cavuto pointed out that the nation’s top earners have already seen their tax rate jump twice in recent years, as well as a deep cut in the deductions they are allowed to declare.
“How much more do you think they should pay?” he asked.
“Um,” she responded, “I think enough until we have a system where not 1 in 2 American families are threatened with poverty.”
Cavuto explained that the “one-percent hoarders” are “smart people,” asking her “who’s going to pay for all this stuff you want” when the wealthy leave the U.S.
“There’s always going to be a one percent in the U.S.,” she reassured him.
When Mullen began citing the world’s wealthiest citizens to further her narrative, Cavuto got her back on track.
“Are we talking about 85 billionaires,” he asked, “or are you extending this to the one percent or whomever who earn a little bit north of $250,000? At what level, Keely, do you start saying, ‘You’ve got to pay a hell of a lot more than you’re paying right now in taxes?’”
She said she supports a tax rate of at least 90 percent on those in the top tax bracket, suggesting her own peers would gladly give all but a dime of every dollar they earn to the federal government.
“I dare say,” Cavuto shot back, “unless you’re high as a kite, you wouldn’t volunteer to pay 90 percent.”

Stupid indoctrinated entitled children. She is too stupid to be given anything. No critical thinking skills there.Pay for your own college you dumb twit. That’s what I did. Listening to that dumb bitch makes me believe that all teachers should be fired, for they are not helping anything or anyone.
Speaking of indoctrinated, When are the banks going to stop getting handouts? When are the banks going to be held accountable for all the money and homes they stole from people during the housing crisis that they created? When are the politicians going to be held accountable for all their war crimes? You payed for your college education the moment you signed legal tender to the banker called a “note.” The banker deposited your note, per Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (GAAP), and accepted your note as legal tender in exchange for credits (debt), per Uniform Commercial Code; UCC article 3 and article 4. So, really you paid these freeloaders called the banks double the money on your student loans on monthly payments. I am sorry man, but that is called racketeering, extortion and theft, period.
If I were a student, I’d focus more on the content of the “education” they believe they are getting. (It’s just indoctrination; bunch of dead facts that are incomplete and correct.) They tell them what to know, instead of how to think critically and how to want to learn. But don’t laugh at her, most people reading this received the same indoctrination.
And most were told that the lottery would pay for education costs. How did that work out forya? Same ole insanity with its membership happily adapted to an insanity tagged “normal.”
This is why I hate guys like Cavuto. He’s horribly condescending talking down to this young person that may not be quite articulate in her thinking but is certainly trying get her point across. He constantly interrupts her thought processes and talks over any idea she is trying to put forth. She tries to direct the focus towards the Banks that are constantly getting bailouts and handouts and he bulls right over her and doesn’t answer her counter response to his ridiculous questioning. I thought she did quite well considering the obvious bullying tactics this dumb ass displayed.
Wow. What BS from the big business mouth pieces at fox news. Who’s going to pay for it, are tax dollars stupid! if we wasn’t hoarding all the wealth to the criminal banks and political whores to start illegitimate wars in other countries, and war on our poor people here in this country. Seriously folks, what is more evil, free college education or student debt by the millions for us to pay out more of our money to the criminal banks and political whores that we already do? Most people that run up student loan debts by the thousands can’t even get a job in their field of study, and end up working harder at slave mart for less money to struggle paying off their debts, while people are saying how great America is because we’re so called “independent”. News flash, when you depend on your job to pay off debt to banks that never loaned you money in the first place, THAT’S CALLED DEPENDENCY. What a sick retarded society.
The fiat money system that the banksters control is all based on debt obligations.
Loans, Bonds, Collateralized Debt Obligations, Mortgage Backed Securities, Derivatives, Federal Reserve Notes are all debt instruments. The only real money is gold and silver which is why our Constitution explicitly requires its use. Unfortunately, the banksters along with the politicians have found a “legal” end run around the Constitution by bankrupting the country in the 1930′s and instituting a new coinage act in 1965. There is no money circulating, there is only debt obligations. We are all indentured servants to this system run by the crafty criminals that “legalized” it.
When you can print debt obligations at will far beyond the limit of ever being able to “pay it back” why is there anything called taxes? Why? Because it’s a restrictive people control mechanism and is used to gain advantage over, or ruin others. It has nothing to do with paying the debt which must exponentially keep increasing to keep the debt system afloat.
That being said, we do live in a time and place of comfort and ease. Most people in 1st world nations live far better lives today and have more conveniences than rich people did a hundred years ago. So, you can fight against the system, or learn to live the best possible life you can within its boundaries.
The problem is going to come when the current debt obligation system can no longer support itself and it finally implodes. The results will not be pretty and many will suffer.
Regarding college education, is it more advantageous for the government to spend umpteen billions on warfare or educating their people? Just like any other capitalized venture, where is the greatest return on investment? The people that run this world (1% of the 1%, the trillionaire dynastic families) would rather use you to increase their holdings by taking over countries, land, cheap human resources and mineral rights than put everyone through school where they might get an education and become harder to control.
This is why I hate guys like Cavuto. He’s horribly condescending talking down to this young person that may not be quite articulate in her thinking but is certainly trying get her point across.
Sorry, but the 1% got to the 1% at our expense! They are the 1% because of extreme greed! You pay and pay and pay just to live an average life! But, you are paying them! They could have sold the things you buy for far less, and they would still be wealthy, but instead they increase their prices and increase their prices until you have nothing left over! I make 100,000 a year. I have a 2000 sqft home, a car, and furnishings, along with a ton of bills. That 100,000 barely gets it done! Most families have two wage earners now for the same reason! We pay, and we pay! And, they get richer, and richer! Now look at the price of things! 200,000 is a starter home! 40,000 – 50,000 for a car! 100 for internet. 100 for tv. 35 for home phone. 40++ for cell phone. 400 car payment. 2000++ for mortgage or rent! 400++ for heating and/or cooling. 100 water. 40 garbage. 100++ food. Etc.etc. and they get richer! And you pay more!
Shes on a school loan, in debt and indoctrinated. Shes gone folks.
American The Idiot
And how’s that going to be paid? This question has not been answered even today. That’s why we are in such debt. But the banks, oil corporations, drug corporations and twenty countries in the world all receive federal dollars, which we also cannot pay for and these same corporations do not pay taxes. OH that’s how we could pay to rebuild our country and pay a living wage. Stop giving all the money for rich and corporate interest.
yes not a smart girl
Neil Cavuto is as stupid as she is. If College tuition was “FREE”, that means no one pays for it, its “FREE” HEELLOOO!!!
Seriously – did they not teach you anything in school. “Free College tuition mean no one pays its Free hello” Again Seriously? So exactly who is going to teach at the Free Colleges? Are professors/teachers going to teach at Free Colleges for FREE?
That is why Cavuto asked – who is going to pay for it? Tax dollars? If the question is not asked are we to assume that Teachers/Professors are going to teach at these colleges for free?
Will you teach up and coming children for FREE?
Cavuto shame on you. You tricked this girl.
Frankly yes tuition could be free. Stop paying such delusional outlandish incomes to sport coaches. This alone would pay for teacher salaries. Property taxes usually pay a portion to colleges. Why outlandish salaries to deans???
As for the 1% whom have destroyed everything for everyone starting with businesses forced to close unable to compete with the 1% competitive monopoly. Hiding their gold. Not allowing Free energy. This greed must stop. There is a bigger imbalance between the rich and middle class since Obama took office. Tax ONLY the 1% allowing no write-offs or deductions or multiple corporations to hide your money. Stop trying to control countries… start wars… steal resources. Put that wasted money to good use.
Do away with unions in schools. Teachers should be paid according to student success or, their making good grades. Just the opposite of dumbing down but actually teach. And teach in a way children will learn.
This girl is too young to voice the actual facts fairly not realizing Cavuto needed to be silenced.
The reason this girl does not understand economics is due to a failed American Education System.
We need to close the public schools.
Issue state vouchers to grades 1-12 school children parents and allow parents to put children into the private school of their choice.
It might also help to hire teachers to come here from other countries. Countries that have a better education system than our 3rd world system.
The teachers in our country are dumbed down to the point the children can not learn more than their teachers know.
We need teachers with much better educations to teach school to the next generations of Americans.
Then once better educated students graduate we will have Americans capable of teaching the next group of children coming through the schools.
Right now it seems at times when it comes to the relationship between teachers and students … we have the blind leading the blind.
Let me be very clear. This dumbing down of America was done deliberately by the government to the people so, they could take over America and people would be too stupid to do anything about it.
@sarah- agree with you 100% –
I’d like to point out to commenters above, nothing in this world is free! why should it be free? How can anything be free? Do people think the public school systems are free? The public school system is paid for by our tax dollars. Every school in every state year to year, never to has the budget for the upcoming school year and are constantly begging money from those “evil” local business or corporations. My business is constantly donating money to our local schools. But see there is a hidden agenda here behind the government, that the indoctrinated people are too blind to see and these so called 1% richest people in the world don’t want you to know. They are the puppet masters, they run the federal reserve, they have control over the worlds banking system. Their net worth is $500 trillion.
If you want answers to this corrupt ass backwards of world we live in- Start looking into NWO, illuminati, Shadow government, UN, they are all one in the same.
