I appreciate the sentiment, however it should really be clarified, for the purposes of productive dialogue, that employees and customers do not own a business. Businesses are for-profit and have a balance sheet just like everyone else, and creditors and minority shareholders have a responsibility in the ecosystem.
A creditor has a due-diligence obligation to determine credit worthiness, and a recent change in ownership could be part of that. Noone forces a creditor to give a loan.
In any non-public share ownership of a company, the shareholder has agency to manage their holdings in the company, and if they are bearish, they should sell.
Now the real grift is PE use of regulatory capture of a consumer. Consumers do not have much choice in the world of healthcare/hospice care.
In that sense, the government has the power of the pen to adjust the law.
I dont find any value in echoing a false entitlement to customers amd employees.
