In the long reach of U.S. History our countryman have faced down

the English Army twice, the Confederacy, economic crashes, the Kaiser, Hitler and the NAZIS, Imperial Japan, and destructive terrorist attacks

I can only howl with sad laugher that our democracy may be done in by demented egg voters.

By about 12%. Lots of prices are down. At least according to the chart at the url below. Definitely worth. Checking out.

Problem is misinformation, ignorance and an unreasonable expectation of how much things should cost. Not everything is subject to Walmart pricing and our eggs don't come from china.

Rude awakening is coming if/when trump tariffs happen. Of course, trump will take credit for successes of Biden policies and then blame Dems for failures of his policies.

Usually takes at least a little while before gop policies undo progress from Dems. I think Trumps actions will be swiftly lethal.
