He explores using a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to pay for these treatments pre-tax. Curry jokingly suggests that the No Agenda show should be FSA-eligible because it improves the mental health of its listeners.

Infrastructure Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen announced that the state would likely have to cover the operational costs. The hosts use this as an example of why high-speed rail projects are often "scams" that fail to meet domestic travel needs.

The hosts suggest HSAs are being promoted as new financial instruments for banks to bundle into derivatives. The segment concludes by comparing health insurance to car or home insurance, arguing the public has been "hypnotized" into misunderstanding the mechanics of medical coverage.
