What happens when private equity takes over your hospital, your house, and your job

Private equity has become one of the most powerful — and least understood — forces in the American economy.

In her new book, Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream, journalist Megan Greenwell breaks down how this industry is quietly reshaping American life. Greenwell sat down with Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu to share the stories of people pushing back against these entities to protect their jobs, their families, and their homes.
