    Damn, if only someone could reduce egg prices in one day. Hopefully that person isn’t actively sabotaging the government instead of reducing egg prices

      His solutions are to kill inflation reduction act, what includes a lot of subsidies to agriculture to keep the prices down.

      Then he also pushed for deportation is immigrants. You know where a lot of these immigrants work for cheap to keep prices down? Agriculture.

      And of course kill the DEI program because of racist reasons. A large benefactor of DEI are rural communities.

      Or all the other programs for crop insurance and agriculture support that’ll be killed as part of Project 2025. Not to mention Musk DOGEing up all government departments and finances what’s going to make an this very bad very quickly.

      But maybe killing environmental protection will make it cheaper? Eh, going easy on regulation was wat caused bird flu to spread like it did already causing a large part of the price hikes.

      It’s like believing the guy that promised egg prices going down was a really bad idea.

        Oh, don’t forget killing the USDA(by firing everyone) department that was working on bird flu. So we can get MORE bird flu which means more eggs?(No).
