Whoopi Tells Americans to Fund Failing Schools With More Taxes [WATCH]

“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg told viewers on Thursday that Americans need to “suck it up” and pay more taxes, even as many continue to struggle with daily expenses amid inflation and economic uncertainty.

Goldberg, whose estimated net worth is approximately $60 million as of April 2025, made the comments during a discussion about the current state of the U.S. economy and ongoing challenges facing public infrastructure such as schools and libraries.

“A 90-day pause doesn’t mean anything to anyone because people, as you said, are struggling with everyone that they’re living with on a day to day basis. Now you know what we’re fighting against,” Goldberg said.

“But I also believe that it’s very important to remind people that now is the time for each and every one of us to suck it up and make sure that we know what we need to take care of. If you’re in an area where the school district is losing, then you got to pay a little more taxes and you gotta help the schools out. If you’re finding that your libraries are falling apart, you have to give more. This is where we come in. We cannot depend on [President Donald Trump’s administration]. This is us. Because we all thought they’re talking about somebody else, no, they’ve been talking about us the whole time and when I say us, I mean all of us.”

Goldberg’s remarks referenced President Donald Trump’s recent 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for trade partners—excluding China, where the administration raised tariffs to 125% in response to Beijing’s retaliatory trade actions.

The baseline 10% tariff and additional fees on foreign steel, aluminum, and automobiles remain in place.

Throughout her time on the show, Goldberg has defended the economy during Joe Biden’s term despite a series of economic setbacks, including record inflation levels. In June 2022, inflation peaked at 9%, marking the highest level in four decades.

On a March 11 broadcast of “The View,” Goldberg claimed that President Trump ruined what she described as a strong economy inherited from the Biden-Harris administration.

However, economic indicators show a different trend. In March 2025, inflation fell to 2.4% year-over-year based on the Consumer Price Index, the lowest level of CPI growth since 2020.

Goldberg also made a claim during Wednesday’s episode that egg prices had not dropped “one cent” since Trump took office in January 2025.

According to data from Trading Economics, the national average price of eggs has declined significantly, dropping from $6.41 on January 21 to $3.19 as of Thursday—a 45.03% decrease.

Meanwhile, President Trump is supporting a Senate Republican-led bill to extend the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

The legislation would permanently extend tax reductions that are currently set to expire. Lawmakers warn that if the tax cuts are not renewed, Americans could face a cumulative $4 trillion tax increase beginning in 2026.

Trump’s trade and tax policy agenda has been central to his current term.

The tariff strategy, which aims to protect American manufacturing and penalize foreign governments for unfair trade practices, has received strong backing among Republican lawmakers.

At the same time, the push to make the Trump-era tax cuts permanent has gained momentum in Congress, with GOP leaders emphasizing the financial impact of allowing the tax relief to lapse.

Goldberg’s call for higher taxes among ordinary Americans has sparked criticism on social media, with users pointing out the disconnect between her millionaire status and the economic challenges faced by working-class households.

As tax policy and inflation remain top issues in the lead-up to the 2026 midterms, such remarks are likely to remain in the spotlight.
