Basically, the company had to pay for its own buyout when private equity firms KKL, Vornado, and Bain bought the company for $6.6 billion, mostly with loans.
Because the company then had to pay off those extreme loans, they were forced to sell off their assets and property, which they leased back from the very private equity firms that now owned them.
The same thing happened more recently with Red Lobster and JoAnn Fabrics.
Time to kill private equity……with crippling regulation and accountability of course
Not when you live in a country where private equity basically owns the government.
Nah just make the rich people pay their taxes. Then they won’t have money for stupid shit like this
