*"Private equity forms have raised prices whilst either adding nothing or cutting internal staff and service options.""

The Neo-Liberal media needs way more guilt over what they do. It's like putting Elon Musk in an Iron Man movie or on Rick and Morty, the media too often act as propaganda for the system - they should be running stories about how it's on CEOs to run Just companies that have livable wages.

There needs to he laws that dictate the maximum ratio a CEO can be paid.

I wish workers would rebel.
