    Private equity has been able to obscure its role in the ruin of retail by hiding behind e-commerce. https://usat.ly/2GIq3Kb  (via @usatodayopinion)

        Wait. Your own link to “The Week” article says it happened in 2004, not 2005 and that they put up $1.32B, not $1.2B. They put up THAT much money and only took out $200M in all those years? If they had not done all this, would Toys have closed many years earlier, like in 2007?
