Private businesses are not the problem, corporations are.
Venture Capitalism is the problem. When a private business beholdens itself to a stock-price, that stock price becomes the ONLY thing that matters. You keep that stock rising no…matter…what.
Have to use cheap labour? Fuck you…stock price.
Quality Control cuts corners? Fuck you…stock price.
Don’t give them any money at all. Private businesses literally should not exist.

Employees can’t afford groceries? Fuck you…stock price.
The best way to solve this though is through control of the means of production. Can’t have this if the business is owned by the state.
Or worker co-ops. If workers own their own companies then that would solve 90% of the problems of late stage capitalism
