Private equity has quietly been gutting major sectors of the American economy from healthcare, to housing, retail, to our news media, and more. The industry is a multi trillion-dollar powerhouse that is upending all of our lives.

Journalist Megan Greenwell has been covering the rise of Private Equity, and her new book reveals how these corporate takeovers have disrupted industries, eroded job security, and undermined essential services across our country.

She joined me to dig into the rise of private equity, how and why it has infiltrated every aspect of American life, and what average people can do about it.
