Privatise ACC

PRESS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Privatisation

Privatise ACC

"It should be obvious to even the least observant New Zealander that the government – regardless of which party is running it – is capable only of making a hash of what should be a simple market product - take for example ACC," fumes Libertarianz spokesman Russell Watkins.

"The ACC funding shortfall is now going to cost New Zealanders billions, evaporating the puny tax cut that the National Party has so graciously promised us."

"It is time once again to dump ACC, privatize the lot, and let entrepreneurs who want to be in the accident insurance business do their thing Only a complete ban on governmental interference can take the burden of bureaucratic bullshit off our backs forever," concludes Watkins.
