I've said before the principal purposes of the drug store chains are to clone themselves and shake down Medicare. That contemptible behemoth CVS now wants a huge chunk of the drug-benefits-middleman pie to itself, meaning with luck a financial scandal down the road to make Rong-Aid's look like an innocuous short-change at a kid's lemonade stand.
Caremark was built by Edwin Crawford, a former Auburn football player and an executive under Richard M. Scrushy, the former HealthSouth chief executive. NUF SAID. (Corrected at 3:00 p.m. I thought CVS was the biggest of the three drug stooges; it's no. 2 to the equally bloated Walgreen.)
