#3 The more dangerous stuff is behind the counter and much more expensive.

CVS also sells beer and very large sodas but who am I to judge.

#4 I don't know what is going on, gov't connections etc, but Bernie Madoff would have damn sure had CVS in his portfolio. Amazing stock growth and profits, absolutely amazing.

#5 So we have a president who can't quit smoking saying it the store's fault for selling him cigarettes.
Well, nothing's ever his fault...

#10 In Berkeley, pot is about to become "free of charge" for those making under a certain amount annually - around $32,000 annually for an individual. The dollar amount lost will be covered by jacking the rest of the customers who obviously are members of the 1%
