   Can someone steelman private equity, please? I'm honestly looking for the upsides (for non-investors) of when PE moves into an industry like medicine and begins buying up businesses that traditionally aren't already large chains.

   I already hear the downsides frequently from someone whose work is directly affected.

      The upside is to the folks who sold the businesses they owned.

      Should they be outlawed from selling to certain classes of investor? Which?
