Stop buying shampoo Pete.
Good message about its not really that big of an issue when there are so many other real issues to be concerned with.
Pete, you’re generally a smart guy but a couple of things to point out. There was no Trump administration a couple of months ago. It started January 20th. 30 days ago, today. Egg prices are not Trumps issue. Eventually bringing them down, like of lot of the Biden agenda will be Trumps issue. Let’s see what happens.
*campaign
Bird flu is responsible for the current price of eggs. Neither Biden or Trump can be blamed for the flu.The real problem this may lead to is how the Trump administration may handle the bird flu problem.
Some are already blaming Biden for killing chickens in infected flocks, thus raising prices. If bird flu mutates to allow human to human infection we are in for a severe and damaging epidemic among us humans. Most of the proposed ways to reduce the killing of chickens increase the risk of such mutations.
We can only hope Trump leaves enough expertise at the CDC, HHS, and NIH to make wise decisions about the best things to do. What he and Musk have done so far gives me some real trepidation. This column gives solid numbers to the size of the current problem, and, in my opinion, does not justify taking much risk to save the birds.
