Posted 4th Nov 2013 to the Christchurch Press
I have to say Canterbury got a Double Whammy when it got Struck by the Earth Quakes at the same time as National was in Power.
Labour’s David Cunliffe has addressed the need for the State to act as in the Nation’s own insurance broker and Mr Dunger Brownlee National MP drops a Chamber Pot on it!
Mr Brownlee forgets, we have a State insurance set up in place called EQC and if we intend to live on Islands surrounded by potential Tsunamis, Potential Earthquake, Storms, and Volcanoes we ALL need a better system than the rickety Private Enterprise Model in Place Now.
I am only an ignorant layman but even I can see we are living with a faith based insurance environment in post quake NZ.
And the Reaction time and desire to help the afflicted in Christchurch is most unsettling and the shear waste is unbelievable.
Our insurance should be Belt and Braces stuff, not a ratty piece of string!
At any rate, What is our Taxation for if not a universal insurance policy, and a Social Contract that We fund a State who will protect us all from Bad Luck
not of our own making. A fundamental Human Need, but something the Brownlee’s of this World can’t comprehend.
