I've always thought it to be contradictory for a medicine provider to sell something that is so universally accepted to be so detrimental to people's health.

I applaud CVS for making their decision.

I agree, it seems like it would improve their image.

$2b annual hit, but probably selling something else as another poster mentioned. How long until WAG and Rite Aid begin? You know they will bc of the PR (good and bad) associated with it.

Well, I'm not sure how that can be. All the folks who think it's logistically viable to legalize ALL illicit drugs tell me how manufacturers and sellers will be falling over themselves to market "legal" heroin to the public.

I didn't realize they were thought as a medicine provider... If they are going that route, how long until the candy/chips aisle is gone?
