They had work crews out today doing their best "pi$$-poor" patch job on the swiss-cheese road I have to drive every day.
These "el-cheapo" repairs won't last a month when the real thaw starts.

I agree, it's real state job security if you can get paid to create the need in winter for the very job you get paid for during warmer months.

I had some auto repairs done 2 weeks ago, along with a 4 wheel alignment, which was completely shot within a week due to the great road conditions in this a-hole state of ours.
There has to be some way I can claim the auto repairs on my state taxes, since the state is directly and solely responsible for the cause.

Good luck with that. They'll tell you that you don't need to drive on the roads. There's always public transportation.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Fisherman Tim, you really need to move to another state,maybe even a different part of the country. I could try to explain freeze/thaw and the impact on roads but you wouldn't care.You complain about too much plowing and too much patching.Now, you want us to pay for your car repairs too. Try putting your skirt on one leg at a time tomorrow and enjoy what you have.If you don't like it here,feel free to leave because your whining makes you seem like a beyotch.

What the hell does a plow have to do with frost heaves which is the reason we get potholes !
I suppose you will piss & moan here when the roads don't get plowed & salted and you have a crash because of snow or ice !
