Neil Cavuto Repeatedly Confronts Student Pushing Free College Plan With Harsh Facts (Brutal)
The Blaze ^ | 11/12/2015 | Tré Goins-Phillips

Keely Mullen, an organizer for the Million Student March movement, joined Fox Business Network anchor Neil Cavuto on the air Thursday to discuss the movement’s demands for free public college, student debt cancelation and a $15-an-hour minimum wage for student workers. In the awkward 9-minute interview, Cavuto repeatedly cited facts and figures that seemed to fluster the student.

When asked who would pick up the tab for the demands she listed, Mullen said, “The 1 percent of people who are hoarding the wealth and causing a catastrophe students are facing.”

“If the 1 percent just had their taxes raised a few years ago back to almost 40 percent then to pay for the healthcare law, they had them raised another few percentage points, then they had their deductions limited to raise another couple points — depending on the state or locality — they’re pushing over about 50 percent in taxes,” Cavuto told Mullen. “How much more do you think they should pay?”

Cavuto’s question, asked within the first two minutes of the interview, became the centerpiece of the entire discussion, as Mullen was unable to provide a clear answer.

Obviously her major isn’t economics.

I did laugh when she said her parents were on all kinds of government programs ad scraping by to send her to college. Geesh why?

Those folks should instead send her out to get a paying job at a diner or something. LOL

At least the young woman is fairly attractive. If she would give up protesting in the street, and would get on with her academic life, she could have a bright future. She is either hanging with the wrong crowd, or some unfortunate good kids are hanging out with her.

There must be a reason for this level of moronic stupidity.

Maybe she has done too much drugs and she simply has a very retarded development. How does she function in the world?

Every sentence is a question?

That was hard to listen too indeed?

Cavuto tried to be gentle?

This is a college movement leader?

Oy?

I heard that someone gave her a red wig and one of those Groucho nose things before she left that studio so people wouldn’t recognize her and start laughing.

She couldn’t follow Cavuto, he tried over and over, but her stupid kicked in every time. Seem like he posed some idiotic questions on purpose to expose how really stupid she is.

I’m not sure that a college education would do much to help this level of stupidity.

During the interview,, I watched the stock ticker to make sure it wasn’t crashing. If this is our future, we are screwed.
