Don’t worry, his stupid fucking idiot dumbass cult fascist fans will make up something really fucking stupid as an argument.
They won’t care that Trump hasn’t done anything to fix the price of eggs, because they’re too busy being reeled along by whatever the next thing is that right-wing media is telling them to be angry about.
It’s the Archer method of drinking, but for societal awareness - keep the people fighting over pointless stuff and they’ll never have time to reflect on the things they should be angry about.
I overheard some incel during a dinner recently who was bragging about all the waste Elon was cutting. That’s their narrative, I guess.
It made me think of an anorexic person bragging about how little food they need. Except this guy was enormously fat…
I’m in PEI Canada. I’m getting eggs from a small local farm for $5 a dozen. I could probably get them cheaper but I like supporting the farm and the eggs are probably fresh enough to hatch.
It really needs to say, “I did that!”
I’m in Europe and pay nearly €4 for 6 grade 0 eggs, have done for ages. These say free range, so I guess equivalent to grade 1? This is obviously slightly more expensive but not by crazy amounts - were eggs there that much cheaper before?
In the US, back in 2023, a dozen eggs at Aldi cost $1.35. Before all the bird flu/inflation/corporate greed I would frequently see them for .79 a dozen.
When I was there 2 weeks ago they were going for $5.65
That’s insane. Sounds like your egg prices were being artificially kept low.
They would crowd them in cages and pump them full of antibiotics so they wouldn’t get sick. When there’s a disease that the medicine doesn’t fix, they need to kill the herds and rebuild… which leaves us where we are now.
Ahhh that explains it. The vast majority of eggs in the UK are free range, where hens have to have access to outside space.
I think you can get caged eggs still, so they’d be much cheaper.
