Private equity companies buying up medical specialist clinics

Private equity companies are buying up medical specialist clinics in the US, and creating local monopolies that systematically gouge, and even defraud.

This problem afflicts many areas of medicine, just as it affects many other areas of life in the US.

For medicine, the full solution is a national medical system. It would save the US money overall, but might require taxing the rich more.

However, the problem of concentration of industry needs a general solution too.
