    They also own CareMark, which is a pharmacy middleman…so CVS owns Aetna who covers you, then Aetna pays CVS for your prescriptions, then CVS pays CareMark for the pills (I think I have the order right there). Somehow, this is legal and totally cool despite the money never leaving the CVS ecosystem at all.
