Rite Aid to close hundreds of stores in bankruptcy: report
Rite AId will reportedly close 400 to 500 stores as it plans to file for bankruptcy, the Wall Street Journal reported
By Chris Pandolfo FOXBusiness

Pharmacy giant Rite Aid is negotiating terms of a bankruptcy plan that could see a significant number of its more than 2,100 drugstores permanently close, according to a report.

People familiar with the company's talks with creditors told the Wall Street Journal that Rite Aid has proposed to close as many as 500 stores in bankruptcy, and either sell or let creditors take over its remaining operations.

One group of bondholders wants to liquidate a larger number of stores, and there is an ongoing discussion on the number of stores to be closed, the Journal reported.

Given the conversations remain ongoing, no decisions have been made at this time, Rite Aid said in a statement to Reuters.

Bidenomics
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Rite Aid was doomed from the start.  They bought up all the regional drug company's in the 80's and 90's.  Piss on them.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Hitting an already saturated market, you'd best better have some overwhelming 'thing' to get customers in the door and keep them coming back. Apparently, whatever they thought they had, was insufficient.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
