- Inflation was bad enough under Biden, now everything is worse. The other day at Walmart there were eggs for $8 a dozen, I'm told I was lucky to get that. Coffee was way up too, is this even before the tarrifs come into effect?
  
  Are the egg prices being high caused by inflation? I thought it was the bird flu outbreak that the USA has been struggling to control over the last 3 or 4 years.
  
  Well whatever the cause, things have gotten worse for average Americans in the last two weeks.
  
  Oh Absolutely, it's going to be a rough few years I worry.
  I only brought it up because the economy is complicated, and most consumers don't understand what causes prices to increase, when then leads them to vote against their own interests.
  I figure he best I can do is try to educate people where I can.
  
  I got 60 (5 dozen) white eggs from Sam's club, for 19.56$ after tax.
  I don't obow what kinda gourmet eggs y'all are buying, but clearly they're not the right kind.
  
  I have four hens in my backyard, so I have zero clue what eggs even should cost, since I get them from my own chickens.
- I just found the article interesting. Guess we'll find out. But I'm stoked to see what happens!
