Are there any VA Employee Pharmacy installations anywhere?

I would think that a VA Employee Pharmacy would enable the VA to reduce overall medication costs and assist employees as well.

What do you think?

EFA dividend yield looks good and the jump today will get me almost even for the year.
I guess I should pay a little more attention to my TSP account this year before I am too poor to pay attention.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Happy Investing in 2012.

Spreading risk over Fund S & I. I have precious metals in Roth account to balance things.

 

[silversurfer]

I put 5% in the C fund awhile back along with the 95% in S to maybe gain a little leg up on the rest of the S funders on the tracker board. Well, that didn't work, so i put the 5% in the I fund and thats not working either. I should have stayed 100% in the S fund. At least i would be even with the front crowd:laugh:

300,000 Organic Farmers Sue Monsanto in Federal Court: Decision on March 31st to Go to Trial Not only does this lawsuit debate the issue of Monsanto potentially ruining the organic farmers’ pure seeds and crops with the introduction of Monsanto’s genetically modified (GM) seeds anywhere near the organic farms, but additionally any nearby GM fields can withstand Monsanto’s Roundup herbicides, thus possibly further contaminating the organic farms nearby if Roundup is used.

Collins asks FBI, thrift board to explain delay in reporting TSP hacking - FederalTimes.com When asked why TSP did not tell all of its participants about the breach right away, before it had figured out who was affected, Weaver said, "That would be a nice way to scare … 4 million people." "It was not a good thing, and we're not happy about it," Weaver said. "But it's 2 percent of our population [that was affected]. To scare all of them would not be a smart move, in our estimation." Weaver said the board mailed letters to affected employees May 25, and that most of those letters should arrive May 29. The FRTIB said there is no indication that the exposed data has been misused, but it is offering free credit monitoring to affected participants.
