There’s a crime wave at CVS, but you’re being lied to about who’s behind it. The company is under-staffing stores, underpaying workers, and forcing pharmacists to chase money at the expense of patient safety. “I’m afraid I’m going to kill someone,” said one pharmacist.

    One of the biggest misses of obamacare is that it should have not allowed any company to be involved in more than one segement. Pharmacy - hospital - insurance - providers. Besides the republicans kicking out the one leg so they could later say its flawed (yeah they flawed it) and is a failure, this allowance of monopoly is killing healthcare.

      At the same time, striving for monopoly is the only way some segments can survive. An independent hospital is doomed, but a health system has leverage to get better reimbursement rates from insurance providers.
