Eggs are $6/dozen, used to be less than $2/dz - that's +300% increase in 3 years.

Don't pay attention to the warbling.

They do not understand all that is involved in the pricing of commodities and they refuse education or to educate themselves.

Much easier to blame corporations and 4 years of Trump for the worlds ills during almost 4 years of Biden.

Yeah, crazy how culling more than 80 million birds across 47 states due to the avian flu outbreak in 2022 resulted in an egg shortage.

Sad part is that’s only half true.
Avian flu and farmers both commented they’d culled less chickens then normal from avian flu outbreaks.

It’s was mostly just plain greed. Use a crisis as an excuse to price gouge like always.

Many egg producers complained that some of the feed they were using, prevented egg production. Once the feed was changed, eggs production resumed.
1 up, 2mo
So how is that a fault of the state or any admin in anyway?

We don’t live in a socialist state the corporations are hat to decide to feed their chickens and even then that was mostly an excuse when their avian flu excuse didn’t hold up thanks to farmer and disease expert testimony.

It's capitalism doing what it does in the late stages - at one time the "extra dollars" that showed up when prices inflated would be reinvested, now they're just horded.

In what country? Because that's not what they cost in the USA. Closer to half that.

The egg prices have fluctuated back and forth from $2+ to just under $5 for one dozen Great Value eggs at Walmart

Yes, it was better even with Covid. No wars, low inflation, border under control, lower crime, mortgage rates low, low minority unemployment to mention a few.

See, the real problem with the Trump years were they were such an absolute shit-show that we collectively WANT to forget them - you guys included.

The wars were there, Trump just surrendered them to the enemies - first when he abandoned the Kurdish fighters to genocide in Syria, and then when he surrendered to the Taliban and ordered a rapid withdraw of troops from Afghanistan weeks before the 2020 election.

The border was a humanitarian crisis, with hundreds of thousands of refugees in horrible conditions, and the mortgage rates dropped because $4T in new cash was injected into the economy, and that's how the fed distributes it.

As for unemployment, minorities were hit the HARDEST by his bungling of the pandemic, peaking at 16.8 percent, both higher and later than the average peak of 14.7 percent for the rest of the nation.

Shit-show, nothing is worse than Ukraine and Gaza. Humanitarian concerns are much worse now, and many of those concerns are inside the US now. Unemployment, inflation, crime, all worse under Democrats. Democrats have been making bad policy for so long , they can’t get away from them.
0 ups, 2mo
Ukraine was invaded by Russia in 2014.
Trump vowed to kick them out on the campaign trail in 2016.
He didn't when he was in office between 2017-2021.

Unemployment is the lowest it's been in like always.
Inflation spiked starting in 2020. Under a Republican administration.
Crime also spiked in 2020. It has been going down in the last couple of years.

Oh also in under Biden we haven’t had mass graves on U.S. soil.

Which mass graves? Fentanyl deaths, migrant crime, Democrat run cities crime, cartel-run border murders? Biden is not a leader, but he does have followers.
1 up, 2mo
They have been doing it for over 150 years.

Historically for people with no next of kin or money to pay for a funeral.

Democrat run cities have lower crime rates than Republican run ones.
And less per capita than in rural areas.
Cities in Red States have higher crime rates and then they do in Blue States..

The ones that stacked so high we storing the corpses in food storage trucks because the morgues were full.

He's talking about literal mass graves, like the nearly 1200 people interred in rows of pine boxes on Hart Island when Trump absolutely bungled the pandemic response.

Yeah, who was to know the right wing in our country would turn a worldwide pandemic that killed millions into a never-ending series of self-destructive political stunts.

It's cool though, blame the guy who tried to head it off, and not the idiot who turned the US into the global hot-spot for COVID-19 infections and deaths.

That was the democrat party that fought the travels bans in court and got them rescinded.

That's cool though, ignore reality.

The "travel bans" did nothing because he was banning foreign nationals from specific countries, not travel to or from those places, or even into the United States.

Talk about ignoring reality - more than a million people scrambled onto flights from China and Italy during the early pandemic, directly into the United States where they were forced to stand in hours-long lines at customs to answer a stupid questionnaire - and then they were allowed to fly all around the country, which is why we became the hotspot for infections and deaths.

The democrats would have gone to court to remove your "full stop".

And like another democrat I know of, you would abandon american citizens in a dangerous foreign country.

That is horrible.
0 ups, 2mo
Now you're just making things up to be angry about - had there been a full stop, it would have been defensible in court no matter who challenged it.

And no one would have been abandoned - we have the resources and infrastructure to support them overseas long enough to bring them home safely.

You think NONE better than SOME?

How does that make sense?

Are you speaking from a feelings and/or emotional standpoint or one of public health.

Like ineffective masks, you argue so.e protection is better than none.

How about the CDC losing track of 1,600 AMERICANS that returned from China and were supposed to be monitored for exposure?

Do they deserve any blame for the disease running amok in the US?

How about Fauci downplaying the expected deaths?

How about all of the illegal immigrants loosed into Biden's America without requirement of vaccination while citizens were being fired from their jobs for not accepting the "vaccine"?

That didn't spread the virus?

How about now, today, illegals with no immunizations pouring in to the US?

Where's the vitriol directed towards them that y'all express towards American soccer moms that don't want their children sitting around drooling on themselves, biting, punching, and breaking things caused by getting childhood vaccines?

Why the different standards?

Part of a longer article which contains other retrospective gems.

Try reading with an open mind instead of "the narrative" in mind.

I have to ask:

With the benefit of hindsight, had YOU been president, what would you have done to prevent the COVID-19 virus from ever reaching the confines of the United States?
0 ups, 2mo
Easy - I'd have implemented full stops from hot spots and a contract tracing program for all other travelers, foreign and domestic.

That doesn't even require hindsight because it was the sensible thing to do at the time, but he was more interested in his stupid trade war than some fake news china virus.

Now you are making things up to be angry about.

They did not sue to have ALL travel banned, they sued to have ALL travel bans lifted.

😄 Just like the Americans abandoned in Afghanistan?

You are either misinformed by the misinformation in The echo chamber or are purposely spreading misinformation! 😄
0 ups, 1mo
No, they sued to have Trump's indefensible travel bans for specific nationalities lifted because they were as useless as they were xenophobic.

Again, no one would have been abandoned - but if you need examples of people actually abandoned, you can look to the Kurds in Syria or our allies in Afghanistan since your orange idiot abandoned both to be slaughtered.

Re fentanyl in particular, I feel like you haven't really paid attention to that issue - yes, they've been increasing since 2012, but the data shows a more interesting pattern where a gradual increase became a moon rocket, and then leveled off again.

Notice anything interesting about the dates when those things happened?

No, it is not. To ignore facts is denial.
You should look up words also before you misuse them.

Still waiting for you to indulge me on them stats.
Ignoring that request is avoidance, and that for the purpose of continued denial.

They're pumping more now than they ever did during the Trump years, and making bigger profits to boot - I suspect his plan to tax them for price-gouging died in the House when the clown show moved in.

Not pumping enough. Multiple restrictions on new drilling, especially in Alaska, why?
1 up, 2mo,
1 reply
We're pumping as much as we need at this point, as we're experiencing no shortages in availability of fuel or petroleum products - corporate profit margins have been running quadruple the 40 year average since 2021 however, and that has driven prices higher and higher.

The restrictions are because Trump unnecessarily opened a petroleum reserve and wildlife refuge for drilling, because he didn't understand few would be willing to explore, much less drill there, because outside his base doing so is wildly unpopular.

Like the shuttering of the Canadian tar-sludge pipeline, it had zero real-world impact on American lives.

Restrictions keep the price high, which gives Russia and Iran enough money to wage war.
