Taped:  02/24/2006.  Remember when you first heard about 401k's or IRA's? The financial services industry went bonkers trying to sell them to you. Well there's a new kid on the block and its name is the health savings account. President Bush talked about it in his State of the Union Address and has made it a high priority for his administration's agenda this year. What is a health savings account anyway? And does it make sense for you to get one?  U$A Inc, currently not running on CUNY TV, offered a unique opportunity for senior members of the business community to share their thoughts on important business issues with a broad-based New York audience. While many business shows today seem focused on generating sound bites and tend to treat business as if it were a blood sport, U$A Inc allows for deeper discussion of the complex philosophical and ethical issues arising almost daily in the business world.  Host: Sarah Bartlett, Bloomberg Chair in Business Journalism at the Master's Program in Business Journalism at Baruch College.  Watch more at www.tv.cuny.edu/series/usainc
