Topic	Amazon set to purchase PillPack, venturing into retail pharmacy
FLUFFYGERM 06/29/18 11:41:56 AM #22:	DezDroppedFreak posted... Can you imagine if amazon made private prescription insurance irrelevant. Some meds can be thousands of dollars to purchase from wholesalers, which is why I mentioned relationships for the current climate. Its a long process to get to what youre talking about We don't need to imagine, I think we'll see it happen in under a decade. You don't need to purchase anything from a wholesaler if you can just spin up your own production and supply chain. Amazon already has a monstrously effective supply chain that just gets better each year. If they acquire and develop their own pharmaceutical capabilities there's no reason why they can't mass-produce medicine and sell it for a fraction of what others are selling it for. The tl;dr is that I'm probably going to purchase some Amazon stock even though I really should've gotten some a few years ago >_> --- Do good. Eat communists. <cite>FLUFFYGERM posted [p:904185549] in Amazon set...
