    Very unfair to try and change the rules like that to a long term commitment like Kiwisaver, once people have committed to it.
    "Rainy day" access has been allowed for many years now, under the financial hardship rules or terminal illness rules.

    Pulling out any old random new ideas with KiwiSaver just prior to an election is just plain irresponsible.
    I agree with some of the suggestions regarding changes but not just prior to an important election. Far too important a subject for quick decision.
    But I don't see why we can't change it. Just look at the investment options that are available with Ausi super. Not saying we should copy them, but they offer a far broader spectrum of superannuation diversification than KiwiSaver.
    Certainly worth closer scrutiny but to be used as a lolly scramble prior election is wrong.

    When exactly are the elections ?

    That employers who topped up the wage subsidies from their own funds to keep employees on are beneficiaries.

    That's how desperate Labour & its loser-minded supporters are to breed beneficiaries.

    Now that comment is even weirder than some of your other weird posts - an insult to all NZers?? - how many whiskeys had you consumed when you posted that?
