I was aware the USA has some educational troubles, but either you are trolling or joking or these troubles are much more serious than I anticipated.

Hey Internet stranger, can I buy some of your eggs?

The primary problem is most people don’t understand inflation. Inflation is the speed at which things get more expensive. There is always creep up.

That’s what the 3% “cost of living” yearly raise is supposed to cover. It’s not really a “good job” raise, if just keeps your wage exactly the same as the prior year alongside inflation. Another thing a lot of people don’t understand, but that’s a bit of a digression.

So. Inflation speeds or slows but never reverses. Prices never go back down unless there’s recession. When the DC people talked about the economy being good they meant, in part, that inflation was fixed. We were back to 3%. The problem with that is it doesn’t bring down the price of anything. It only means that prices stopped jumping up so high compared to 2019.

So this idea that 2016 prices would return with Trump is based in a misunderstanding of economics. Prices don’t go back down.

In fact, like the COVID jump, I wouldn’t be surprised if the egg industry left prices up once the avian flu passes.

And the CDC being ordered to not report any data on the avian flu via an executive order is also not the current administrations fault I guess?

This needs more upvotes. There’s no way these should cost more than meat, whatever the excuse.

I’m finding 18 for $9. Discount groceries. Not Walmart, that place is more expensive post 2020 than dedicated discount grocery stores.

Even so. Eggs priced like meat is going to cause a lot of protein malnutrition going forward.

If only there was some sort of center for disease control that could assist the American public in combating illness. Surely, if such a center did exist, the president wouldn't hamstring them in some way in which may prevent farmers from taking action against infectious diseases destroying their livestock.

Oh, would you look at that, the president did hamstring the CDC by halting regular release of their scientific reports, and so it is, in fact, on him that bird flu is causing egg prices to soar.

Must be the DEI chickens.

Groceries, the term he popularized that no one was using until he started saying it.

Couldn't have been, because that pompous dick Gaston eats the entire daily supply every morning to get jacked.

Chicken shit.

Those are fancyish eggs too. I paid $3.69 yesterday for store brand and they are often on sale for a little less. Our avian flu situation isn't as bad yet though so it can still go up.

So a dollar more than a banana

Unleaded gas became standard in the 70s. If you live in a dense city that was built 40+ years ago and eat eggs daily and are a small child, you may reach the non-recomended intake amount, barely.

Most people with a backyard big enough for chickens don't live in the urban areas that had such dense lead exposure anyways

That's still an obscene price.

8.75/12 = $0.73 per egg.
45/60 = $0.75 per egg.

Incredible! With bulk purchasing, I can pay an extra $0.02 per egg.

Already started. We have a coop about ready, my wife has experience, we're semi-rural, about set. Only thing, I want them free range and I'm not sure about the wildlife.

Haven't seen a fox in ages. The local coyotes don't come in here, yet, but a massive new development is pushing them out of their comfort zone. Plenty of raptors it seems. But hell, I can afford everything but a ton of fencing, of any kind.

What to do? Just run out with the 20-gauge and start blasting at 3AM when shit goes sideways?!

I need to post on the chicken comm.

And about nobody is raising chickens in an urban environment.

There isn't a massive bovine flu killing huge swathes of flocks...
