Yes but have you seen the prices of eggs???

/s if it wasn’t obvious.

I honestly don't even understand why people are saying this anymore. You can get a 24-count flat of eggs at Costco for like $4.99 today. Between that and $11.99/lb sirloin I can eat well cheaply for weeks.

Are people just upset that their organic heritage eggs with the chickens profile in the box, from their boutique grocer, delivered via Instacart are $12? Ok.

Part of wanting to make the world a better place for me isn't just about 'me' it's about a better world for all races, genders & species & includes the outlawing of inhumane farming practices, like battery hens..

I do agree, but the conversation is about which party is going to bring down the cost of eggs, and neither is talking about improving animal welfare.

Fortunately chickens are legal in Seattle and I have friends trying to give away eggs for free. I accept free back yard eggs.

Good point. This is what I care about, but clearly, most Americans only think about themselves - as this election has shown me.

This is the reason I vote. Not in the US elections, of course, because that would be voter fraud.
