| Obama needs to make HSAs available to EVERYONE |

Right now I am lucky to say I have relatively decent health insurance. Premium costs me $30/pay check. $2000 deductable on an 80/20 percent system, and after that coverage is 100% with no limit for the year.
However, with the way benefits get cut more and more each year it is only a matter of time until that decent insurance goes out the window and is replaced with some extremely high deductable crap insurance with limited coverage.
Right now I can't contribute to a health savings account (HSA) because I have relatively decent insurance and by law am not allowed to. I think the law needs to be changed so that EVERYONE can contribute to an HSA regardless of if they have good insurance or not.... because you never know when that good insurance is going to go out the door.
