Vance complains about $4 for a dozen eggs, standing behind a sign saying $2.99 for a dozen...

Tyson's announced weeks ago that had no effect; they had already replaced birds wiped out by the epidemic. Chickens, like rabbits, have pretty high population explosions. The 'Big Giant Epidemic' lasted about 5 to 6 months.

On average, a pullet will begin to lay an egg around 5-6 months of age. You may get lucky and start receiving eggs as early as 16-18 weeks, or have to wait a long 28-32 weeks before you receive your first egg. However, most pullets will begin to lay their first egg between 20-24 weeks.

In other words, capitalism.

In other words. no real competition in grocery store chains. Farmers aren't the ones raking it in.

We have at least four of those chains here in my city.

Apparently someone here thinks eggs all cost the same. Go to the grocery store and get educated.

You have to buy the 'jumbos' just to get what used to be the normal size for eggs now. The 'regular' size these days look like they come from pygmy chickens.

Sad. You cant afford eggs? What kind of loser job do you have?

They have tripled since Biden took over. If the Great Value brand of eggs were $3.74 on Tuesday. They were $1.09 when Trump was in office,

We used to have dozens of indies here, i.e. real competition. My little town at 5,000 population had no chains and 4 full size grocery stores. They close a long time ago and now there is just three, out of town, plus Aldi's, all chains, soon to be three if Kroger's takes over Albertson's.

And yet inflation still came and went, i bet.

If you think they're going back down to 98 cents again you have some great drugs. they have you dancing in the streets for going down to $3. lol inflation hasn't gone down at all.

Why would I think that? The cost of living always increases, and it increases for farmers too.

Yes, especially when competition is nearly nil.

Then why haven't all groceries gone up three hundred percent?

That would seem to indicate that. There's probably more market forces involved here than you are admitting.

You’re so funny.

Get some hens and a rooster.

Those would be the delegates who can vote any way they want (depending on party rules for that state). They picked Harris.

Never understood that, why does your party even have primaries?

 

[citygator]

If egg prices are your rally cry, life is good. I am old enough to remember the last administration having 9/11 number of people die daily and the crashed economy.

Who says they haven't? Name brand bread used to cost 15 cents a loaf; they're over $3 here now, a 2,000% increase since the mid-1970's.

Have any more pointless 'Touched You Last!!!' BS? If so put it in a letter and mail it to Biden.

I have. lol

I don't like chicken but my wife does, so I have to feed them.

Bird flu… not inflation jackasses

 

[frigidweirdo]

Dontcha just love how Harris has now been president instead of Biden?

I doubt Trump's supporters will notice. They create their own little fantasy world, and then all this stuff suddenly becomes "the truth", no matter what.

 

[Man With A Plan]

I'm not your assistant. Just stop wasting people's time and make your own point.

But you seem confused. Only MAGAts are pretending to care about this. So you're probably bugging the wrong person.

My point was...and remains...that Kamala Harris is the only person in US history to be nominated by a major political party as their nominee without getting a single vote for that honor in a party primary!
