Elizabeth Warren targets private equity in veterinary care

Ugh. I should have known. This attempt to monopolise a vital market is especially ugly, because not only is the education aspect a sideline to yet another underlying real estate business, but they’re also sucking in taxpayer money.

Let’s not forget newspapers! Big media companies bought up local newspapers in the 80s and 90s. Now VC and private equity are buying up the big media companies and paying journalists a few dollars per hour over the states’ minimum wage. Forget the fact that newspapers require a college degree, they will simply use AI instead.

Warren is great. It isn’t just people being screwed here, its even more about the animals. Who is going to want to take a rescue pet home if basic, preventive care becomes out of reach?
