The Cuomo administration banned shale fracking in 2014, bowing to the noise of &#8220;fracktivists.&#8221; Hochul kept the ban and doubled down. The result: energy poverty for the people who can least afford it.<\/p>\n<p>Twenty-six percent of New York City children live in poverty. Statewide, 2.7 million residents. Politicians respond with more taxation and finger-pointing at the Feds \u2014 but the real answer is sitting right underneath their feet. Trillions of cubic feet of natural gas, untapped, while Albany digs the hole deeper with bad policy and fills it with tax dollars.<\/p>\n<p>The numbers tell the story. A 2025 Heritage Foundation study found that New York\u2019s fracking ban has created a wealth gap of $11,000 per person \u2014 $27,000 per family \u2014 compared to Pennsylvania neighbors just across the border where fracking is allowed. Before the ban, those counties were economic equals. Since then, Pennsylvania landowners have been collecting thousands of dollars per acre in lease payments and a sixteen percent cut off the top of all gas sales. New Yorkers get nothing for their rich reserves. It\u2019s state-sponsored pauperism.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/tech\/artificial-intelligence-helps-fuel-new-energy-sources\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE HELPS FUEL NEW ENERGY SOURCES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If fracking were allowed, New York would receive billions in royalty payments. Tax receipts would swell from high-paying jobs and well-capitalized drillers. The tide from those trillions of cubic feet of natural gas would lift all boats.<\/p>\n<p>I know this because I frack wells in New York. Mine might be the last company still standing. Over two decades, my company has fracked thousands of wells \u2014 no groundwater contamination, no low birth rates, no nosebleeds, no apocalypse. Nothing. Because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/energy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fracking is safe<\/a>. The data backs it up. But data deniers won\u2019t have it, and so neither will the state\u2019s neediest residents.<\/p>\n<p>The green alternative isn\u2019t clean \u2014 it\u2019s just cleaner-looking. Renewable mandates come at the cost of massive land use, strip mining, toxic battery production, and a waste stream all their own. And every solar farm and wind turbine still has to be backstopped by natural gas or coal when the sun doesn\u2019t shine and the wind doesn\u2019t blow. Albany knows this, but presses on anyway \u2014 leaving New Yorkers with residential electric costs 40% above the national average and natural gas prices 23% higher. The state imports nearly 80% of its energy, much of it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/us-regions\/northeast\/pennsylvania\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">from Pennsylvania<\/a>. It\u2019s the equivalent of bumming cigarettes instead of buying them. The smoke still fills your lungs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/elections\/gubernatorial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cuomo and Hochul<\/a> are masters of importing energy and exporting opportunity. They\u2019ve bent before an unkind ideology at the expense of their poorest constituents. Natural gas is the lowest-hanging fruit New York has. It\u2019s right there.<\/p>\n<p>And this is still the &#8220;before&#8221; scenario. When AI data centers turn energy into a full-blown battleground \u2014 and they will \u2014 New York\u2019s self-inflicted power shortage won\u2019t just hurt the poor. It will hand the future to whoever has the gold. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/kathy-hochul\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Governor Hochul<\/a>, the fanatics you\u2019ve been appeasing don\u2019t pay those utility bills. Your constituents do.
