Zenefits

Todd Kiser, Utah's Insurance Commissioner, is trying to make the revolutionary new program Zenefits illegal in the state. He says it is unfair competition to traditional insurance companies.

First of all, Mr. Kiser you are a terrible capitalist. Competition is a key component of capitalism and you are trying to drive off a revolutionary company that brings together every part of a company's HR need, benefits, payroll and more.

Second, this is exactly the kind of company that Gov. Herby wants to bring to Utah. He wants innovative, silicon valley type companies and Zenefits is exactly this. It will change the way every HR department operates.  It is ridiculous to try to keep them out of the state, just like it is stupid for Ford, GM and Chrysler to lobby so Tesla Motors cannot sell their cars at car dealerships.

Third, Zenefits is unfair to traditional insurance companies in the same way electricity was unfair to candle makers in the 1800's. Kiser, stop being stupid, stop accepting money from these traditional companies and do your job.
