30. CVS wants to be 'healthcare providers' for insured persons /w the lowest quality ACA insurance?

Lots of Federal money to be collected in healthcare. The regs. for a clinic probably don't allow ciggie sales in a clinic waiting room.

Now if only CVS would get rid of the very bad quality, high-processed foods they sell. The foods with the 'we take snap cards' signs under them. The regs for any 'clinic' that gets Federal money shouldn't allow low quality food sales either.
