Egg prices are up 138%. We're calling BS on the excuses:

Avian flu? Avg flock size dropped 6% but no substantial drop in production.

Inflation? Cal-Maine's production costs were just 22% higher than in 2021.

Cal-Maine had a 10x increase in gross profits. This is price gouging.

@rbreich These are some minor examples of why I don't believe in capitalism. It encourages, greed and cheating. It's a failed, soulless economic system that has brought the planet to its knees and human survival into question.
