@spectre It was just a huge price increase that was rather recent. It concerns me that the supply itself could be in danger, since high prices are usually an indicator of scarcity. I do not like the idea of scarcity with staples for our food, thank you very much. If this was something like salmon, I would have far less concern.

We're back!

Also, nobody better be calling for price controls because of this sort of thing. I would rather have expensive eggs than NO eggs. I like not starving, thank you very much.

Fuck me, eggs cost almost 7 dollars for 18 of them. I distinctly remember them being easily half of that.

I can afford them, so that is not the problem. But rather that it is a sign that things are not going well.

@Shadowman311 If he is going to be in the same room as Ben Shapiro, it is going to have to be done ambush style. Because there is no way he is going to agree to meet with Kanye West.

@sj_zero @Tfmonkey Yes, exactly what I was thinking. And I doubt China is going to refuse to trade with Russia considering that the US's actions.

@Tfmonkey He calls the Russian ruble a "potemkin currency," being propped up by extreme measures. Gee, I wonder if that better describes the dollar.

Oh no, Russia won't be able to import "advanced western technological components." Hold up, doesn't the west themselves import a lot of the raw materials for said components themselves? Why the hell would they need to import it from "the west" when they can just get much of the raw materials from their own borders or from non-western trade?

@Tfmonkey In all seriousness, I can find multiple problems. First, the guy criticizes Russia for not using an air assault for their initial attack. Gee, I wonder if they had any motives for not doing this, such as purposefully not wanting to flatten everything, especially the areas they wanted to reclaim.

And he even goes into "muh sanction are crippling the Russian economy," as if the NATO countries themselves are not having major economic problems.

@Tfmonkey You said Russia is kicking the shit out of Ukraine. Well, my dear monkey, you have been DEBOONKED! This video from a large channel that totally is not being favored by the algorithms says Russia is failing in Ukraine!

Ha, I bet you feel foolish now, considering that it has an extensive list of sources for evidence:

"All videos are based on publicly available information unless otherwise noted."

I shit you not, that is what is said in the description.

@Tfmonkey I just thought of a scenario from my own life that would fit both of the categories of highly important/critical work that is low skilled. That being a summer job I did vacuum broom operating at a flour mill. It is absolutely critical to the operations of the flour mill (given how flour dust buildup can mean the whole facility exploding with just a spark), but it is a job that you can replace with nearly anyone, and therefore it is not a job that pays luxury wages.

@WashedOutGundamPilot The dick picks were only a gateway to the real issue, the under the table payments being made to Joe Biden with his son as the proxy. The pictures just prove that the information came from Hunter's laptop, since where else are the pictures going to be coming from?

@WashedOutGundamPilot The fact that Spain had the literal definition of fascist rule well after the conclusion of WWII is perfect proof that WWII was not about "fighting fascism." If any soyed out leftist retard wants to argue that it was, then I will ask them why Spain was allowed to remain as they were for decades.

@CoolHandJames I made a flowchart just for this sort of thing a while back. It covers all possible scenarios.
