Q+A with Jack Tame 
Kali Mercier from Helen Clark Foundation and WSP tells Katie Bradford about the findings of her new report on insurance. The report finds insurance will become increasingly unaffordable and changes must be made to ensure we don’t keep building in hazardous places. Mercier also discusses what’s “fair” when it comes to paying for insurance – should people who live in lower-risk areas effectively subsidise people who live in higher-risk locations?

You're not allowed to talk about equity in this country without the Hobson's Pledge bunch claiming they are being discriminated.
Live on a flood plain and you are very likely to get flooded .
Fair calls yes but I wouldn't want my share going towards households that have up to 7 adults in a house that booze and drugs are more of a priority some people yes understanding that insurance is flat out expensive but it is their responsibility not mine
Just divorce your mortgage, sell your home, live out of your car and invest all your savings into Invidia stock – insurance [& rates] problem solved.
I'm going to guess that at no point in this clip do they mention that four decades of having both major parties being on the economic right has caused people's buying power to decrease significantly because wages have stagnated while inflation, worker productivity and profits keep climbing, which just goes to prove that the rich are continuing to get richer, and the working class are getting slammed into the ground. Helen Clark was part of that problem.
Insurance is a necessary evil. Insurance companies never lose.
Funny how they have been creaming it for decades now a decade of trouble now they want the same profits after payouts
Insurance companies are the same as banks…they exist only to profit from working people…they are not in anyway interested in your well being.
Great interview and topic 🎉
simply answer be your own insurance.
If No from a council ends up at court initiated by the developed and the judge votes in favor of the developer then there's something inherently wrong with the justice system, innit….?!? Have a hmm lol
