Steve Hilton’s Common Sense Rant Sparks Fury After He Tells Locals to Stop ‘Crying’ Over Potholes and ‘Fix the Darn Roads Themselves’
Oh, great. Here we go again. Another out-of-touch political talking head telling us how to live. Steve Hilton pops up on some fancy show and says the potholes on Maple Street are a “test of community spirit.” Easy for him to say, sitting in his comfy studio. I’ve lived here for 30 years. My suspension is shot and I can’t even get my kid’s stroller down the sidewalk. “Just grab a shovel and some asphalt,” he says. Yeah, because my 60-hour work week leaves me so much time to become a volunteer road crew. This isn’t about “common sense”; it’s about our tax dollars vanishing. Don’t lecture us, Steve. Come push my stuck car out of a crater at 7 AM and then talk to me about community spirit.
