Well a lot of the eggs in My area were recalled. Can’t wait to see in the future what will happen l with less regulations.

rollingnscratching.bsky.social•97 days ago

They just won't recall them. A few people will die. Cons will say "free market, eh?"

couchpotato1010.bsky.social•97 days ago

Exactly. Survival of the fittest.

rollingnscratching.bsky.social•97 days ago

Then... eventually after a few years some congressman'a mom will die...then he will care and make a big public outrage over it. Lo
And if he's in the gop when they have control, he may get in a spat with rkf jr, if rfkj lasts that long. Lol

Seems like the way it works. Voting matters.

charliesangel.bsky.social•97 days ago

Exactly they’re so full of it.

I’m stocking up now on basics because when Trump gets in office I fear prices will skyrocket.

What a difference a few weeks can make. Also, 80 is no longer old.

therickydavila.bsky.social•97 days ago

Yep.

Also, eggs are now about $5 with an epidemic of Avian Flu. Memo to Trump: CDC’s going to go through some things…..

The MAGA plan is to crash the economy. I hope shoppers are making wise choices because if those idiots succeed, consumer goods are going to be crazy expensive.

patpod.bsky.social•97 days ago

Yep

Say it louder for the people in the back!!

Those that complain about eggs couldn’t afford to shop on Black Friday. Most likely the people that went shopping are buying before Trump Tariff 2.0 kicks in. I know I did.

kathycaliving1.bsky.social•97 days ago

When MAGA realizes 🍊🐷’s tariffs are going to be paid by U.S. consumers, they will try to find a way to blame it on Pres. Biden. The orange rapist & felon owns the disasters soon to come.

aggieloveseggs.bsky.social•97 days ago

Or, and hear me out, they are bad and disproportionately impact lower income households that weren't shopping on Black Friday, and because wealthier Americans went on a shopping spree with their credit cards, you're going to pretend poor people aren't struggling to meet their basic needs.

aggieloveseggs.bsky.social•97 days ago

The other alternative that the widespread availability of credit in the USA had rendered many Americans financially illiterate, so they weren't shopping because they can actually afford it. They're held hostage by American consumerism.

aggieloveseggs.bsky.social•97 days ago

But, I still think you'd see the majority of purchases being made by upper middle-class Americans and not poor people. Poor people were likely the ones working on Black Friday.

I'll bet more than a few people were like me, replacing my old large appliances before Trump's tarriffs significantly increase their prices and make the models I want hard to find.

Better to replace them now, even if they could have lasted a few more months.

rollingnscratching.bsky.social•97 days ago

Yup, got a fridge. Same reasoning.

kelsiebivona.bsky.social•97 days ago

My husband and I upgraded our dishwasher for this exact reason

sassenachfol.bsky.social•97 days ago

Folks here have said not to worry about avocados in 2025 (they feel CA produces plenty), but my avocados all come from Mexico, & I need my daily infusion of guac! Even @clairecmc.bsky.social was worried on MSNBC today! Local neighbor has chickens so egg prices not a worry, but guac!

rollingnscratching.bsky.social•97 days ago

When avacados from other places go up, the calif avacado prices will, too. And coffee, and 100 other things we dont even think about.

It’s all bs,

pamica.bsky.social•97 days ago

It was never about groceries.

therickydavila.bsky.social•97 days ago

Correct.

so-called-b.bsky.social•97 days ago

Those racist bigoted hoes didn't want a woman, especially a black/Indian woman, so they good.

jpg18.bsky.social•97 days ago

Guarantee half of these people stayed home instead of voting for a Party that for four years afforded us an economy that reflects the freedoms to spend $10.8 billion.

dollydagger6.bsky.social•97 days ago

How many went into credit card debt to pay for crap they don’t actually need?

THAT is the data I would want to see.
