> If the business is a hospital?

I'd expand that to any type of business that has effectively inelastic demand through the ability to hold people emotionally hostage.

So, for example, in addition to hospitals also include veterinarians, funeral services, family planning, etc.

Soulless PE vultures should be barred from all of this.



Funeral services in the US got aggressively consolidated already, decades ago. Look up SCI - owns over 1,500 funeral homes and 400 cemeteries.


That’s a good expansion of the premise, I’d support your idea wholeheartedly. Let PE raid chain restaurants and toy stores, not essential services where they add no value and only extract wealth.
