We don’t need more eggs. We’re producing the exact same amount as always. The regulations that stop the monopoly from raising prices are no longer enforceable as the regulatory body is gone/understaffed/is under the control of said monopoly (or their cronies)
Honestly leaders should bring trump eggs when they visit the white house. And always start with my mother’s heard you have problems getting eggs so she insisted I bring a half dozen.😜
Trade offer
We receive: Eggs, Greenland
You receive:
People from Greenland would surely accept to exchange their land with California.
California would probably agree to being part of Denmark as well. Let’s do this!
Only if California joins the EU, too.
I genuinely wonder if California would qualify.
I doubt it but Schengen would be nice with them.
Perhaps some money
I’m just glad that howtobasic isn’t American.
Guys please don’t give them any eggs lol
THAT ONE EGG WAS FORTY EGGS?
They should meet with a US delegation to negotiate, and give them one single egg.
Should meet with the US delegation dressed as an egg, refuse to collaborate and just devolve into chicken noises imo o7
And tell them to thank you
These are trying times.
*these are trying eggs
This is classic America. I don’t have evidence for this but I have to assume that a large part of why America is having a egg crisis and other nations aren’t is because of the absolutely horrendous and unsanitary conditions of our factory farms. Rather than look around the world and see that better living conditions contribute to a higher quality product, better lives for the animals, and lowered risk of massive disease outbreaks (which could become a human pandemic by the way); we’d rather ship in perishable goods from countries who have already figured that out. Our insane thirst for quarterly earnings reports prevents us from even considering something that would be a long term sustainable solution because it would be ever so slightly more expensive up front
America’s unstoppable thirst for short-term profit is why they currently have a corporate-backed fascist in office that is threatening to invade US’s (supposed) allies to pillage their resources and economies.
Whether they do or not, the US as we have known it is in its death throes. They have surrendered nearly all of their soft power and made themselves a trade pariah. Entire industries are going to crumble as megacorps swoop in like vultures to devour the carcasses as the walls of their economy close in and the whole building collapses. It is in everyone’s best interest to move their interests and money as far away from the US as possible.
Also we havent culled nearly enough chickens to justify this magnitude of price increases and this is very clearly collusion from the ~4 major egg suppliers.
In case you want to learn more about “big egg” Pluralistic: Eggflation is excuseflation
Denmark should help by starting to throw eggs at the White House daily.
Can’t make this shit up.
Hey Denmark we want Greenland and we will take it. - The US
Hey Denmark we also want eggs, please send some, OK? - Also the US
Perhaps he would be willing to offer a public apology and an agreement to step down?
Nah. Still no.
Only if he wears a suit and says “thank you” to the Danish prime minister.
And surrenders Solvang to the Danish crown.
A chicken suit.
Sure, have our eggs. There’s a 700% export tariffs on eggs at the moment tho…
Who is that supposed to punish?
They should take the moral high ground and refrain from adding tariffs.
On the other hand, the correct capitalist move is to raise the price when demand outstrips supply. $30 a dozen sounds fair for highly sought-after imported, organic, artisanal, delicately encapsulated Danish hen ovi (oops). /s
ovi*
This would be gold
Denmark, please tell us “Fascist regime, go fuck yourself.”
Also, why the fuck are eggs $9/dozen in some places, but I can go to Costco and get an 18 pack of free range eggs for $6?
Because it’s price gouging on top of the flu. Like price gouging and calling it inflation. Asking Denmark for eggs maintains the facade
Sounds like just another distraction from meaningful issues, given that actual eggs from Canada and Mexico are being turned away.
It’s always a distraction that gets the headline tbh isn’t it
So they want Greenland AND eggs?
Whats next? B&O? Volbeat? Carlsberg? (Although anyone that tried their pide known as budweiser know the won’t be able to handle Carlsberg)
Budweiser Budvar > Carlsberg > Budweiser (US)
Budweiser Budvar > Carlsberg > Budweiser (US)
Ah, the regular larger, from Carlsberg I always buy
Is this similar to special brew?
The truth.
I’m guessing Greenland is our strategic position to begin enveloping Canada, then we can direct our attention East.
Sorry.
Also we have Carlsbad at home
Greenland houses some key NATO sites that monitor the arctic. These are mostly used to make sure Russia stays in Russia.
The other non-Russian factor that I don’t see people discussing is climate change. The northern areas are going to become more habitable and having Greenland and Canada means the US population has somewhere to go. This is the motivation for a lot of things they aren’t talking about because it is evil.
You can choose which evil is motivating them I believe it’s both.
I have considered that USA would have to migrate North. To plan for it while denying that anything is wrong is true evil.
I get some Lebensraum vibes from that
It very much is. Canada will be housing much of the human population in the Northwestern quadrant of Earth in a few decades. We really need to get our shit together and quash racism if we want humanity to survive.
I think Trump wants control of trade routes (specifically, the Northwest Passage). That also explains why he’s going after the Panama Canal at the same time.
“ Panama is a key partner in the implementation and enforcement of sanctions on entities and individuals designated by U.S. and UN sanctions regimes, including sanctions relating to Cuba, Iran, Nicaragua, North Korea, Russia, Syria, and Venezuela.”
That was from before we decided to install a dictator and become a rogue state.
Yes, but it explains why Panama is a US target now
Hmm… maybe. I’m not sure if “key partner” is actually as special as it sounds, or if it’s just puffery. It could be that a bunch of countries are “key partners” and it just happened to get mentioned in Panama’s report because the writer couldn’t think of something more specific to say. It would be more persuasive if we had the whole list of “key partners” and could show that the US is targeting all of them preferentially compared to countries with less cooperative status.
Besides all the other insane shit we’ve heard from USA in the last few months, and the Nord Stream pipelines sabotage, Danish eggs aren’t exactly dirt cheap. Also, we’re more known for our pork production.
Pork, porn and booze. I’m sure the boycott by Muslim majority countries you experienced a few years back hit those industries really hard.
:-D
Trump better not find out that some americans are unwilling to suffer for him.
