Stop the rot. This mob doesn't represent consumers. I work for a not for profit on the front line helping people every single day of my life who are able to survive because of their disability insurance in their superannuation. Their suggestion "to be wary of claims being made regarding occupation and industry risk in the absence of any suporting data or evidence" is foul.

Do they dispute that people in physical jobs suffer more jobs than office workers. Get real. This mob doesn't understand a thing about the importance of insurance in super. They can come and explain to me and every other welfare worker I speak with everyday why removing a safety net at any level like this should be supported. They might learn something. Or do we live in a world now where calling yourself a consumer organisation means you're actually middle class and educated and your job is more about status than substance.

Get into the real world.
