Really, is that all you've got? Whataboutism and a link that does not address the facts? 
 

Inflation is on the rise, not on the decline. It was proven yesterday in the numbers. Tariffs will also come into effect on April 1, that's more inflation. And the 25% tariffs just added onto imported cars this week, will be even more inflation. 
 

If you rather predict the future and not focus on the present facts, then all indications are that inflation will be much higher by September and not lower. None of the current economic policies in play will reduce inflation.

Huh? You want to see passport stamps of people online? You lefties are getting weirder by the day.

I'm not a lefty and I don't ever want to see your passport. All I asked was where you visited and for how long? You are unable to answer a simple question like that? Really? Let me know when you're done trying to hurl petty insults instead of having a meaningful discussion.

The current inflation belongs to Biden. Read a book on economics.

 

Given you lefties are 33% at predictions I will trust myself more than you.

Do you think that inflation will be effected by higher prices and even less spending due to consumers cautions?

Sorry, this conversation with you has been tremendously, fulfilling, and enlightening, but I have to go. I'd love to stick around and read more of your useless, off-topic and false replies, but unfortunately, I have a life.

No it isn't ASAIK. Chicken farmers in the US had to cull millions of birds due to avian flu, hence the shortage of eggs and a subsequent price rise.

 

The US has been casting around to find countries that have a surplus of eggs that they can buy up. Sounds as they're succeeding.

My daughter tells me all the time, it's still much the same as when I visited back in November-December, and the same before that, with a little changes in certain things, like eggs.

You just post consistently, non-factual, delusional information. I've proven it with factual data. There's nothing more to it. Inflation is up, not down. Egg prices don't have any direct impact on measures of inflation anyway. I fully addressed your point and have proven it wrong. I explained using factual information how it was false. Your snide, off-topic snippets are just meaningless, but not only that, you're just embarrassing yourself by being consistently wrong. 

Yes, inflation under Biden, average 5+% a year, 20+% during his administration.  Based on COLA for Soc Sec.

 

When was the culling of millions of chickens done ? ... under who's administration ?  Why the increase in eggs ? (see below)

 

And the prices are correcting themselves under who's administration ?

GREAT...can ya send some of those cheap eggs over to RIP-OFF Blighty!

 

CHEERS!

[bamnutsak]

I think we are importing more eggs to address the shortages caused by bird-flu culling.

 

And bird-flu seems to be decreasing.

 

And there is obviously a difference between wholesale and retail prices.

 

Not sure what the trump administration did though?

 

Is there an Egg Tsar?

Are egg prices going up or down?

That depends on which prices you’re talking about.

In remarks on March 16, Trump said that when he began his second term in January, the price of “eggs were through the roof,” but now “are down 35% over a short period of time.” Vice President JD Vance also talked about declining prices on March 14, saying, “Egg prices are lower than they were when we took office.”

What neither the president nor vice president made clear is that they were referring to wholesale prices, which is how much retailers pay to farmers and other egg producers to procure eggs to sell in their stores.

Why You're Not Feeling Trump's Egg Price Plunge

 

Egg Prices: Retail vs. Wholesale

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the cost of graded, loose white large-shell eggs in truckload quantities has fallen to $3.27 per dozen. Trading Economics, which tracks daily price changes, found that the price of a dozen eggs had fallen to less than $3 for the first time since October, down from an historic high of $8.17 only weeks ago.

But the price tags at America's largest grocers appear to be telling a different story.

Kroger is currently selling a dozen Grade A large white eggs for $7.39, while Walmart offers cage-free variants at $7.12, or about 59 cents per egg. Other regional grocers are also showing a similar disparity between wholesale and in-store costs.

Well, Russia could attack Ukraine and Hamas could attack Israel, tens of millions of unvetted immigrants could invade the USA, additions to the national debt could double on an annual basis and... 

 

But that happens during feckless administrations.

It's not about reality.

It's about ideology, only, with the opposition, and with most members of both parties.

 

I love cheap hen's eggs.

I love to have two 5-egg omelettes on most days.

 

Great protein for the price, and full of goodness.
