Michael Goodwin: Gov. Hochul’s $500 ‘inflation refund’ plan is just fool’s gold for votes

Kathy Hochul wants to appear to be addressing the cost-of-living crisis, but lacks courage and skill to do it effectively.

New Yorkers are being priced out of their homes and out of the state largely by Albany ’s policies.

The state budget is now a whopping $237 billion , an increase of nearly $100 billion in 10 years .

Gov. Kathy Hochul is apparently the only person in the world who doesn’t have an opinion on abuses of power for political purposes.

She was missing when Biden threw open the southern border, and her only complaint was that the feds weren't helping pay the cost.

She protected herself by rejecting a demand from Mayor Adams that she declare a state of emergency.

She should urge the feds to take the case and seek the death penalty.
