Biden Policy Blamed for Egg Price Increase
During the first White House press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt attributed the significant increase in egg prices to the Biden administration's decision to cull over 100 million chickens, a measure taken to control the spread of bird flu. This statement has sparked a debate on government intervention in agriculture. While some sources confirm that bird flu has indeed affected egg prices, others criticize the policy for its impact on supply. The administration's policy has been scrutinized for potentially exacerbating economic pressures on consumers.
