Just like the “supply chain” right after Covid started to get more under control …
Give companies an inch (of real production cost pressure), and they take a mile (on retail pricing)
And retail prices are a ratchet.
They will NOT come back down

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.
The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.
Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

Elon Musk is currently bankrolling the entire Republican Party at a level no political party in US history has ever experienced. The idea that he's not going to have exactly the level of control over policy that he wants is frankly absurd and patronizing. This is optics.
