The amNY reporter is very active in Middle Village NIMBY Facebook groups, and she’s very clearly trolling for one sided comments about IBX. All this type of coverage does it make these people look provincial and close-minded. Their version of NYC lost at the ballot box last Tuesday.

Perhaps more to the point ~no one had the ability to stop Musk from buying Twitter once he made that firm offer. It was just so insanely over market value. Our cheerleading or lack thereof definitely had no effect on Chancellor McCormick's decision.
Also, "Musk being able to weasel out from the sale agreement he signed would also have been bad for the rule of law though ultimately perhaps less culturally destructive"

Tax free money doesn’t help with catastrophic costs, like a trip to the ER or a cancer diagnosis.
And, like 401ks and home equity, large HSA/FSA will become a target for finance - people will be tempted and encouraged to tap into it and spend it on non-medical stuff.
