Rip off Smith spouting shyte again

I live in a country with health insurance and I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy

....if you have something which isn't on the list , it doesn't get treated , my friend has lost everything due to a motorcycle crash in America...

....you may be alright but a lot of others aren't , there are quite a lot of good solid folk who work hard .... and would have got nothing if it wasn't for our ACC ,

Sorry but its a good system , isn't /wasn't broken . doesn't need fixing but isnt ready to be privatized in order for an outside insurance agent to buy its assets

Totally agree. ACC has its faults but it is far and away better than the insurance systems which exist in other countries.

A simple example: a friend in Australia belonged to a small hobby group which gets together regularly and needed somewhere to meet. Couldn't do it. Every place required proof of liability insurance from the group, plus a rent to cover the building owners liability.

Eventually the way around it was for everyone to join an organisation which had a room available, and meet there. Cover came with membership. Not exactly like borrowing the local squash clubrooms for a MAG/BRONZ etc meet.....
