Is this a buy or a sell? ReplyNot So Fast: The Backlash Against Private Equity [view article]
I'm not against private equity buyouts in moderation, but if it became a huge trend, the individual investor could see significantly reduced opportunities.As for Mr. Pritch's comment: he needs to be reminded that oil companies do not create wealth; they merely pump it out of the ground--OUR ground-- public lands. The more we tax fuel, the better (within reason). Higher fuel costs encourage people to get off their tails and think about conserving and getting smarter vehicles and combining trips. Reply

Not So Fast: The Backlash Against Private Equity [view article]
I was disturbed to hear on CNBC this morning that there's a push to increase the tax rate on Private Equity firms. Any time a sector starts performing well (can you say windfall tax for energy, trying to regulate Pharma) and the government starts meddling in free market forces, I get frustrated. They pretty much destroy whatever they touch and free market principles/entrepreneu... are what made this country great and continue to drive innovation and job creation. Hopefully it's just talk. Don't even get me started on gas price regulation.Dan at everydayfinance Reply
