Thank the City Council:

Yesterday Wal-Mart announced that it was cutting the prices on 350, yes 350, generic drugs to $4 a refill. These drugs will cover everything from asthma to diabetes.

New York City residents will have to keep paying the $20+ they do now since our brilliant City Council thinks Wal-Mart shouldn’t be allowed to open in the city.

So not only has the City Council’s ignorance cost us hundreds of millions of tax revenue by watching NYC residents go to Jersey, Long Island and Westchester to shop at Wal-Mart, they can now be thanked by those who don’t own a car for making them pay full price for their meds when Wal-Mart rolls out the plan nationwide.

Bravo City Council, Bravo!!
