Hochul sending out inflation refund checks worth up to $400. Stupid game she’s playing. Inflation wasn’t an issue under Biden but now she’s playing it up under Trump. I’ll get $300, but it won’t make me vote for the horrible person she is

Only a liberal could come up with a plan to fight inflation that involves the government sending cash out to random people.

That's like filling your fire truck with gasoline instead of water because gas is "stronger".

I will get $300 and that’s one week of groceries for us. I’ve been paying inflated prices for 5 years now so I don’t think $300 will help me much or make up for it. I don’t expect the government to do that, but I do expect them not to be so stupid to raise inflation while fighting it. Even that is a failure though as you state here.

If we get a bill from the IRS for their vig, let's class action Google.

"Generally, state refunds tied to income eligibility are not subject to federal income tax"

First, you must admit that these checks have NOTHING to do with inflation or countering it. Next you must admit that sending out a "rebate" check of some kind, regardless of the label put upon it has, and is a time rested political move designed to curry favor with the voters.

I'm quite sure that the State will determine that I don't deserve a check because I make too much and obviously don't pay my fair share. However, EVERY SINGLE ONE of those welfare queens will be getting a check despite not paying a damn dime in taxes.

I think the income level is like $330,000 for a married couple and half that for a single person. I’m getting $300, not $400, but yes the rest of your comments are spot on. I’m not sure this will do much for her to get votes. $300/$400 is nothing these days.

Many will feel this way. I hope people are offended by it and it costs her votes.

Those who would have already voted for her will accept this "gift" as their due.
Those who will never vote for her may, or may not, accept this "gift", and will still not vote for her.

And Dominion doesn't give a damn about refund checks.

All I know is a Republican won’t on governor in NYS in the next election. Not sure it will be Hochul though.

Anyone that sends me $300 of my own money over a 4 year period has got my vote! less than 100 bucks a year is big money !


Thats a reflection of her understanding of people and the economy

Governor Kathy Hochul's government salary was approximately $259,804 in 2024.

It’s hard work spending all her days on her knees under a desk.

Well...if she wasn't so ugly maybe people would be more willing to let her actually show her face.
(channeling my inner Bigfoot ;) )

Seriously, though... I expected to not be qualified for any of this, so imagine my surprise when I get a check from NYS for $400.

Thanks, heil hochul, for giving me back a pittance of the money you have stolen from me.

I'm still not voting for you, or anyone with a "D" after their name.
