Child, we’re both saying it wasnt market forces. But you have made unsubstantiated claims about testing be the source of these drops. Im calling you out as a moron because you are.
The prices increases were pure corporate greed hence why you’re seeing the rapid adjustments. Because the cost of eggs has never reflected the cost of production.
There is no need for gradual price adjustments for fucking eggs. Business’ make contracts for a set period of time precisely to manage the variability that would require gradual adjustments.
You have cost to produce + cost to deliver + storage costs + profit.
All of those are relatively constant over the span of a year except profit. And the only piece impacted by the flu was availability.
And the only way you fix availability is by sourcing from producers with surplus and in no way justifies nyc jump 200+% and a town a few hours north also jumping 200+% when NYC was already 100+% higher due to real estate and labor costs.
What we should have seen in a market based system is NYC goes up by n% and the town goes up by m% where n < m. Which is not what we saw at all. Cities went up more then rural areas.
Which leaves us back to my original statement of: pure corporate greed. And completely debunks your original claims about testing. Never mind the fact some places saw little to no disruption in prices, which also debunks your claims about testing, since thats federally mandated and uniform across the board.
