Why does the American people tolerate private equity? It is killing jobs and businesses for profit!

1. Private equity should be banned from healthcare, housing and essential services

2. You are right! Too bad American public is not smart enough to see it also

4. Regular people see it, and hate it. The lawmakers are blinded by the $$$

5. Is exactly the right question to be asking!

Pushing “affordability ” is merely asking the vultures to tone it down. Call it by its name.

7. Because most US American see all the Mediocre rich people...

The scammers and grifters, fast talking marketeers, rentiers (investment managers, landlords, and middlemen) skimming off the top with other people's money, Nepo-Babies and parasitic "networkers" using patronage to get advantages, and think to themselves "I can do the same thing, why aren't I rich too?"
Venture Capital is just another way they might be able to get richer quicker if they could just get their foot in the door.
Venture Capital can be harmful, yeah, but they don't want to regulate or get rid of it because they might need it to get really rich in the future, or maybe it will affect their 401k or other retirement investment funds they are holding on to.
