Enshitifaction of everything.
It's sad nothing can be good and stay good. Parasites move in to exploit it to the marrow, always ruining it. Then they move on to the next host.

private equity is a cancer on society

We definitely need to restrict what the bourgeois capitalists do with their money.

It’s a complicated issue, but yes, we should probably think about the future of institutionalized investing in this country

JM’s was already expensive for a sandwich shop. If they’re skimping on meat, which was one of the only things it had going for them, then they’re destined to lose sales.

JM's has always been garbage

I like JMs as much as the next guy but the same people bitching about late stage capitalism are bitching about a national chain like it’s a quaint mom and pop that got destroyed. Find you a local sandwich shop and you don’t have to worry about this. You’re just straddling worlds if you are loyal to a corporation and then complain about this shite

Pretty soon people never eating food prepared by others will be the norm again.
One would think, but at least in Central MS, every restaurant is full and more are steadily opening. The ol' lady and I do very well financially and, under normal circumstances, eat out only once a week.

Private equity = fricked. It’s always this way.

It typically is pretty shitty
There's plenty of businesses that are taken over from poor/old operators and run much more professionally by other owners.
What we're finding out is that all sorts of "free enterprise" types don't like it when prices are maximized in private transactions.

wait until the govt owns the means of production, you'll long for PE again.

It’s the same fricking playbook as always. Lower costs, strap the company with debt, sell it off again in a few years.
We pay the same or more and get less.
AMERICA!

Time will tell if that's a good or bad thing.
The people in this country would be healthier that’s for sure. Every lard arse who’s 40 pounds overweight and can’t check the mail without getting winded would maybe lose a few pounds.
It would be great if the fast food industry contracted by about 40%. We don’t need a Chic Fil A or a Canes selling oil soaked fried pigeon strips every 20 yards. It’s a sad statement that somebody could be worth 10 billion because he sells fried pigeon strips.
That crap is literally just order by number heart attack.
