That was 17% of the total population. The price went up by 400-900%, and there was never a shortage. As usual, we got shafted.

The best part is they’ll raise prices due to “inflation” or whatever, then when supply increases…the prices don’t go down!

I’m honestly wondering what the end game is for these MBA asshats ruining everything. Is it really that many people so selfish and myopic that we have to suffocate on this one planet and never reach?

If the prices didn't go up because of a shortage, because there was never a shortage, why did prices go back down again?

The law of supply and demand explains the price of eggs. If you're saying it's wrong then what's your better egg-splanation?

The prices went back down right after the federal government announced a price fixing investigation and a bunch of news coverage came out about how their claims were bogus.

It’s correlational, not causal. There isn’t going to be a definitive source on this
