I appreciate you stating my position, but please be accurate. New Zealand does not (as Cam stated) charge the employer for workplace injuries) they are shared by the population. My main point this whole time has been that the employer should not have to shoulder the whole load for non negligent injuries and illnesses. It appears in New Zealand they do not, the exact opposite of our system.
Much as I advocated for our system, they appear to treat workplace injuries /illness from within their standard health care system.........what did I say? Oh yea, treat non negligent workplace injuries from within our standard health care system.

In other words, transfer the cost out of the business and into the fund of stolen tax money?
No, I think I'll reject that. Workers need to be able to sue to collect damages as a result of owner negligence, of course we need to end both corporations and unions, but that's not going to happen soon. Employers need to be able to sue employees for negligent damage to equipment and materials.
