    If the prices didn’t go up because of a shortage, because there was never a shortage, why did prices go back down again?

    The law of supply and demand explains the price of eggs. If you’re saying it’s wrong then what’s your better egg-splanation?

      The prices went back down right after the federal government announced a price fixing investigation and a bunch of news coverage came out about how their claims were bogus.

              Then you can find it, if you really care.

              The harder you look, the more conclusively you prove you’re right!

                No, what I care about (in this context) is other people making arguments that they can’t substantiate. I’m not spending my time trying to substantiate someone else’s arguments, I spend enough time doing that for my own.

                I have no need to prove that I’m right. Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
