Price Gouging at it's finest See comments |

A federal jury in Illinois ordered $17.7 million in damages — an amount tripled to more than $53 million under federal law — to several food manufacturing companies who had sued major egg producers over a conspiracy to limit the egg supply in the U.S. The egg suppliers include the family company of its former Chair John Rust, who’s running for the U.S. Senate in Indiana. (As a REPUBLICAN) The jury found the egg suppliers who participated in the conspiracy were Cal-Maine Foods, Inc., United Egg Producers, Inc., United States Egg Marketers, Inc. and Rose Acre Farms, Inc., a southern Indiana-based company previously chaired by Rust. Think it's ONLY the egg suppliers? Think again.

I read about this a while back, we now know why egg prices went crazy awhile back. We even looked into buying our own chickens. Yep good Ole corporate greed, and it's wide spread for sure.

i think a lot of corporations and wholesalers took advantage of inflation cause by supply issues to fill their pockets . greed-flation over-took the real thing . repubs want to claw back covid funds but are silent and complicit when it comes to price gauging ,,,,, i guess they think it is a fair free market practice ?
