[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jesus this is so stupid. People can just use fewer eggs. [/quote]

[b]But think about how many products use the eggs. [/b]

The local bakery in my town has already faced backlash for raising their prices to account for the price of eggs. Pies went from $28 each to $30 ea. It's hurting the smaller local businesses because places like Costco, Walmart, and grocery stores have been able to keep their baked goods prices pretty much the same, which is much cheaper.

Same thing is happening with my favorite donut shop. It's not as bad there, though, because Dunkin did raise their donut prices to ~$16/dozen and the local shop is $25/dozen and theirs are much larger. [/quote]

As usual it's going to hurt the smaller, local places far more and sooner.  But, a lot of people don't think beyond  "just cut back on eggs".  Then it will be flour, and then something else.[/quote]

Exactly. And slightly over a third of dumb people in the United States voted for this, and another third didn't bother to vote.

Lots of small business owners and farmers I know voted to do this to themselves, by voting for republican for president and Congress. Not all, but a fairly significant number.

These small businesses now need to "cut back on eggs" and figure out what they are going to do..l And, yes, there are going to be a lot more shortages where that came from.

Unless you want to get stuff from Russia or North Korea, Trump and Republicans have just pissed off most of the rest of the world in just two months. [/quote]
