Original Note:
Eggs are more expensive because of several reasons -- none having to do w POTUS. 1) avian flu infected 44M-58M egg-laying hens who had to be put down. 44M-58M fewer hens = 100s of millions of fewer eggs. https://www.realsimple.com/egg-shortage-2023-7097127 2) There are also allegations of greed and price fixing. https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/high-egg-prices-should-be-investigated-us-farm-group-says-2023-01-20/
