...The One-Minute Pundit

Wednesday, November 01, 2006


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.)
