Democrat Governor Cuomo hates the people of New York: Natural gas edition

New York state needs more natural gas to keep homes warm in the winter.

Everyone wants natural gas because not only is it more convenient than heating oil burning it releases less pollution and less CO2.

Yet Cuomo is doing everything he can to hurt New Yorkers by stopping a new pipeline that would bring more natural gas, and hence less pollution and less CO2, to New York.

Meanwhile Cuomo is demanding that the companies that supply natural gas continue to hook up new houses even though those companies know that in the middle of winter there won't be enough natural gas and people will go without heat.

It's all political grandstanding.

Cuomo won't go cold this winter and neither will his fat cat backers.  But average New Yorkers will.

Cuomo is probably counting on the #FakeNews media protecting him by saying that he said that people should have natural gas and it's the evil profiteering gas companies that are responsible for people going without heat.

Clearly if Cuomo cared about the people he'd let the new natural gas pipeline be built.

That he's not shows that he's more concerned about leftist virtue signaling than he is about his constituents not freezing in the winter.
