    You can think private equity for expensive everything.

    And also all of your favorite stores and restaurants closing down for no good reason.

    Paywall.

    Out of curiosity, how can there be 30 upvotes on a paywalled article? Do they all have WSJ subscriptions?

      Mainly just people reading the headline, upvoting, then continue scrolling (I am guilty of this as a lurker). Working in healthcare, I don’t even need to read this article to know it’s true. Private equity is the antithesis of good public healthcare.
