"Gov. Hochul Hands Out Crumbs After Fueling Inflation—Is This Leadership?"

Proverbs 29:4: "By justice a king gives a country stability, but those who are greedy for bribes tear it down."

Gov. Kathy Hochul now wants to hand out "inflation refund checks" as a political ploy for reelection. $500 for families, $300 for individuals—after years of supporting policies that drove inflation to record highs.

This is leadership? Approve trillions in reckless spending, then try to buy back favor with crumbs? True leadership doesn’t create problems just to offer half-measures as solutions. New Yorkers deserve better.

Leaders should stabilize the nation, not tear it down with empty promises.
