What is your point? People don't have to use an HSA with a high deductable plan, it is an option. The reason the "rich" people use them is because they understand them and are smart enough to use them. If a person is 22 and without coverage, they can buy a low premium - high deducible plan (let's say $10,000 deducable - less than the cost of a car), and then over time put $10,000 into an HSA, but after taxes the real cost will be less than $10,000. Then they have coverage with a low cost plan and they have an account with $10k earning interest or investment returns. If they go 10 years without needing to tap into the money what happens? Perhaps, you can contact the GAO and find out.

There are two sides (or more) to most public policy issues.

I gave you a website to check regarding what I called a myth. It appears you have not looked at it but continue to argue your point, o.k. I get it. It is my problem, right?
