A federal jury in Illinois has found two large egg producers and trade associations liable for conspiring to restrict supply and drive up egg prices, in a dispute the judge in the case said pitted “the nation’s egg makers against its egg breakers.”
Okay, but do you know how angry the average Facebooker is about the price of eggs? It's a thing that certain people are quite upset about. Of all the inflationary hits, for some reason eggs have really hit theses folks' funny bones.
It's because for the longest time, eggs were the cheapest and fastest way to get protein into your body. Especially compared to the cost of meat. But now, because of inflation, everyone is trying to be more frugal which just jacks the price of those goods and makes us all suffer more.
