That FSA account you have through your work: Where does the money go at the end of the year if you don’t spend it? Your employer gets it, and they are allowed to just keep it. Now you know.

I just had a benefits meeting yesterday and I was wondering that. I believe that the "Saving Account" part is kind of a fraud. I came from a union previously and I can say the entire meeting was a "WTF" is this. Legitimately had me questioning my decision to switch jobs.
@joedai why in the world they can’t just take taxes out and give me the difference is a mystery to me. Seems like a scam. Why in the hell should my employer get it?
@andrewdwilliams Once they said it goes away at the end of the year I noped right out of it. It amazes me how many things have been done to "Fix" the problem of healthcare while just avoiding the fact that we are the only country to have said problems. I would just like to not die from the flu and not go bankrupt at the same time.
@joedai Dumbest healthcare system on earth. Something everyone needs shouldn’t be for profit. You can’t comparison shop from the back of an ambulance.
@andrewdwilliams 100%. I have a few things that I categorize as "Shouldn't be motivated by profit". Health care, schools and the prison system to name a few. Everything else I'm cool with.
