Wal-Mart Discounts Drugs

Announced today, Wal-Mart intends to sell hundreds of generic drugs for a flat $4 per prescription. Wal-Mart's opponents are going to be miffed.

I can't imagine that all opponents, primarily Democrats, will criticize this move by Wal-Mart. Some will, I'm sure. Those with a modicum of common sense will logically trumpet the drug program because there are a lot of voters who will directly benefit. Those Democrats that are shackled to the unions will still find something about the drug deal to complain about.

Nonetheless, upon initial review, the new Wal-Mart program appears to be a great idea.
