Two weeks ago, I bought eggs for 98 cents a doz. and this week they are at $2.29...what happened? Nothing has been in the news and I work in food service and our distributors do not know anything... any clues?

I remember some months ago the whole CA implemented the law that disallowed egg farms to caged egg laying Chickens, and have to let them run around. Within a week of the implementation, the price doubled. I think it is the true reason. The price now is still double or tripled. I remembered it quite well.

No we may be able to not the time it takes from commence to end is a minimum of ten years, if something must have occurred it really is going to have occurred even as Ronnie became residing interior the White abode. not now. Why have such countless refineries been taken off line, why have such countless wells been capped right here in this u . s ., if potential(oil) became so significant? It became not about the OIL, Boys & women, it became, and is about the "earnings". You, (the OIL organizations), administration the availability, you administration the price. You cap wells right here in this u . s ., you narrow back the uncooked cloth, you boost the price. You cut back the refinering means of that uncooked product, you boost the price. This plan has been in result because Ronnie became President. The PNAC knew then what may deliver this u . s . to that's knees, and they have applied their plan all acceptable, and the lemmings have offered into the plan hook, line, and sinker.
