Even the AP is admitting eggs are up 200% and milk is up 170%, 7% inflation my ass, we're probably at 28% minimum.

Lowest cost eggs at the grocery store went up another 1$ a dozen where I'm at over the past few months. No signs of it slowing down. I think they're blaming it on bird flu again, but continuous bird flu for 4 years? Not buying it.

What do you mean by "had" to? Who were the people that made COVID out to be the second coming of the Black Death in the first place?

Us? If you read the early coof thread on here plenty of us were dooming. A lot of people assumed the worst, and even a lot of the scientists and all the media didn't know in the very beginning that it came put of a US funded biolab (Fauci did of course).

Places of work and where people generally gather didn't close themselves. Trump did what he did and was between a rock and a hard place but he was put into that position due to actions of other individuals and groups.

I think in the beginning people were doing what they thought was right with the info they had. I'm talking through like March 2020, maybe April.

However once the real info came out about how less serious it was, how ineffective the social distancing and masks were, a cabal of powerful government (mostly Democrat) and media types decided to take advantage of it to social engineer by controlling people and at the same time hurt Trump as much as possible.

For example I don't think that the virus was dropped to lock everyone down and initiate the 2030 plans of total corporate control and "You will own nothing and be happy," but once big businesses realized there could be a massive wealth shift to Big Pharma, Walmart, Amazon, etc...well they and the politicians knew a good thing when they saw it. It became imperative to shut down small businesses and make Walmart and delivery services Essential. It's also no coincidence that the Democrats morphed into the party of Big Corporate Interests.

The cheapo eggs at my local stores have basically doubled in price over the last few months. And I don't live in a pricy area.

There were alot of people who doomed at first myself included because China was freaking out.

Then when we saw the actual numbers when it hit the west we stopped.

It's a catch 22. A true n' honest book would be fascinating, but there's no way she, nor TPTB, would allow a true n' honest publication of the Kamala Harris campaign clownshow. What's funny is a book like that would likely help expedite the DNC's reconfiguration, but alas, it's not the DNC that's a clownshow, it's the voters.

Kamala's already had a book that was completely ghostwritten (and had a plagiarism scandal attached to it) during her first run at the White House in 2020 as part of her attempt to become the new Obama. Given all the trouble that comes whenever she talks about her past or her career in general, I think it does her no favors to do another "more honest" read of her time as VP or this campaign. If anything, it'll probably get her in more trouble.

Now for the people who managed her campaign? They have every reason to get something out there and are probably already writing something/shopping for deals. Kamala's already demonstrated over the course of her political career that she is quick to throw subordinates under the bus and, if she still has any political aspirations, she's going to be blaming Plouffe, Dillon, Carville, etc. It's why they're some of the only people talking right now.

Stress is also a significant contributing factor to ageing.

Stress has taken a toll on the Zoomers. Picture it. It's 2019. You just graduated high school. Just got your first car. The entire world is ahead of you- and then it all shuts the fuck down. For 2 years more or less. By 2022, the gayest year ever known to man, pride flags in every target and Walmart, it feels so fucking over. Rent is unaffordable. There is a very good chance you're still living with your parents in your 20s. Add in the uptick of internet doomposting, it is a perfect storm to turn a 20 something into a 50 something.

If you think it's bad for the zoomers that graduated imagine those kids in first grade.

Now realize that they're trying to push for it again with this flu because Fuck Trump.

I know. I was that 2019 zoomer basically. 2022 was the worst year of my life. As for the younger kids... I've already seen the damage in some of my nieces and nephews. It's not great.

As for this flu stuff... I doubt anything comes of it. They have been talking about bird flu for years now. This is media scare tactics
