This suggestion shows a gross misunderstanding of both the purpose and laws surrounding Superannuation. It is not appropriate for the funds to act to save member jobs. The Super fund's role is to provide for retirement benefits, not try to soften member's journey toward retirement. Thus they need to invest where they can see the money they are responsible for getting a return. Propping up failing businesses is entirely outside that remit. There is a little thing called the Sole Purpose Test which I would suggest to the Prime Minister would be worth reading.
