You are correct in saying that many are unwilling to listen to what Gedolim have to say but at least it should be their voice that resonates to the klal.
Surely it would be well received if Rav Shteinman spoke publicly about issues that deeply affect our community. Just imagine how reassured people would feel to hear the Gedolim publicly address the problems of the current chinuch system in EY, the rise of poverty in our communities, combatting sinas chinam etc.
