Waffle House is placing a surcharge on every egg it sells

Is it? Vaccinate rather than preemptively killing... Could have solved a lot of problems. Just sayin'...

Instead of giving a preemptive pardon to Fauci, it's possible they could have come up with a vaccination for Bird Flu and commuted the birds' death sentences to death for food or imprisonment for egg laying... Maybe even a vaccine like the polio vax that can be taken orally.

Just thinking outside the box.

Could they just give them bleach?

Why do they need one when your Orange Jesus keeps providing them daily?

The fact his Sheeple are too fucking moronic to see it is their problem. One thing where they keep pulling the wool over their eyes is the fact only about 30% of American voters are Republicans. The growing middle percentage of American voters, the Independents, will determine the outcome of the Midterms. Their votes will be based upon results, not blather bleated out by the Orange Jesus.

They expect costs to go down and the efficiency of government improved. Efficiency being the same results for a lower cost.

Voters Who Identify As Independents Skyrocket—As Democrats And Republicans Dwindle

Democratic party identification has fallen each of the past three years, according to a Gallup survey.

  • The percentage of U.S. adults who said they identify as Democrats fell to 27%, according to the survey of more than 12,000 U.S. adults in 2023, representing a drop from 30% in 2020, 31% in 2016 and a record 36% in 2008 and 1998.
  • That low ties the percentage of Americans who identify as Republicans, at 27%, marking the first time since 2005 that the same number of U.S. adults identify with the two political parties.
  • Republican identification fell slightly from 2022, when 28% of Americans considered themselves members of the GOP, though Republican identification has remained steady for nearly 15 years, hovering between 25% and 29% since the 2008 election.
  • Independents, meanwhile, have continued to rise, tying a high of 43% last year, according to the Gallup telephone survey, over the 41% of adults that identified as independent in 2022, 42% in 2021 and 39% in 2020—independent identification also reached 43% in 2014.

You're a paranoid idiot. Why bring race into a conversation about economic results?
 
We're talking about wedge issues, not just economics. I know you're a bit slow, but do try to keep up.


The Lefties are trying desperately to find anything that will allow them to put a political wedge between the people an Trump. They want the cost of Eggs to be one such issue, but it is not working.


The wedge is too transparent, of too little actual cost, and is grossly overshadowed by the failed and rejected Identity Politics wedge.


Additionally, it doesn't matter how much eggs cost, if you've lost your job/career, because you happen to have white-skin. You won't be buying eggs, or anything else.


The Lefties chose to make Identity Politics the be all, end all. Now you lose.

You keep claiming he was demented. That would explain it.

Did I miss where your Orange Jesus ordered an Operation Warp Speed-style program to create a vaccine? Or will he wait six months like he did for COVID?

All the Left has at this point are lies and hate. They got nothing for facts. They're making all sorts of wild assed claims and speculation about what Trump is doing because they see their carefully constructed government empire being dismantled. They see DEI being crushed, the borders secured and the mass influx of Turd Worlders ended.

Their dream of turning the whole of America into a shit state like California is collapsing before their eyes and they can't stand it for a second.

No need to speculate about what Trump is doing.

Best of luck to the GOP in 2026. This country is not a far right country. And Trump has the market cornered on lies & hate.

Trump America is purposely dismantling
every government oversight organization
that's in place to keep the corporate oligarchy
from complete control of the government.

In his first administration, he put in place the SCOTUS that will allow him to do it.
Now he's actively doing it. With the SCOTUS, both chambers of Congress,
and enough GOP governor-puppets, there's nothing to stop the assembly of a pure dictatorial regime.

Steaming piles of pigshit like yourself are COMPLETELY RESPONSIBLE for this immanent dystopia.
There will be a resistance, however, so watch your back.
You and your kind are despised by every remaining decent person on this planet.

Let me know when Trump starts telling people...

What kind of car they can own and drive
What kind of stove or air conditioner they can have
How all electricity must be made
What kind of house you can buy or apartment you can rent
They must pay to support indigent dumbfucks from Turd World countries who are in the US illegally
Crimes like shoplifting aren't really crimes
What kind of health insurance you can have

Because all of that and lots more are things the Biden and Obama administration have already done. That all sounds extremely dictatorial and was brought to you and everyone else by a radical Leftist, Democrat, oligarchy.

Waffle House says this is a temporary surcharge probably like the airline's baggage fee's were too?!!

New YorkCNN —
The soaring price of eggs has forced Waffle House to add a temporary surcharge on customers’ orders.

The Georgia-based chain is adding a 50-cent charge per egg because of the “nationwide rise in cost of eggs,” according to signs posted at its restaurants. An aggressive strain of avian flu is hurting supply and causing prices to rise — with no relief in sight.

“The continuing egg shortage caused by HPAI (bird flu) has caused a dramatic increase in egg prices,” Waffle House said in the statement to CNN. “Customers and restaurants are being forced to make difficult decisions.”

Waffle House, which has about 2,100 locations, added in the statement that it’s “continuously monitoring egg prices and will adjust or remove the surcharge as market conditions allow.”

Waffle House serves 272 million eggs per year, making it the chain’s most-ordered item, surpassing hash browns (153 million) and even waffles (124 million), according to its website.

Avian flu has been plaguing farmers and the egg supply since January 2022, resulting in 108 million birds since then — 75 million of those were laying eggs — being slaughtered, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation.

However, the outbreak has gotten worse in late 2024 because of a resurgence of the virus. Roughly 17 million egg-laying hens were killed in in November and December, which is nearly half of all birds killed by the virus in 2024, according to the USDA.

The average price of a dozen large, grade-A eggs, which Waffle House uses, was $4.15 in December — up from $3.65 in November — according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

And the cost of eggs will only get worse this year, with prices forecasted to increase 20%, the USDA said.

“Not to be the bearer of bad news, but we’re in this for a while,” said Emily Metz, president and CEO of the American Egg Board. “Until we have time without a detection, unfortunately this very, very tight egg supply is going to continue.”

LOL. What we do know, is that the Braindead idiot's handlers didn't do anything at all but wait until 5 days after the election to try to blame bird flu on your "Orange Angry Man"... Pointing fingers, it is what Democrats seem to be best at. If you want to know what they are guilty of doing all you have to listen is to what they say the other guys are doing.
 
Trump: Close the borders, check. Bring peace to Israel, check. Get Canada to actually start acting on the northern border, check. Get Mexico to start making sure they have the ability to keep people on their side of the border, check... Start firing folks who thought they'd be able to just drag their feet in Malignant Compliance and keep their jobs, check. Start deporting violent criminal illegals, check. Designate gangs as terrorist organizations so we can take emergency actions, check. Pardon folks, check. Open drilling even in the newly named Gulf of America, check...

Dems: But the chickens! We killed Kajillions of Chickens so the eggs would be expensive, and it's all HIS Fault!

Man, I'm just not sure about a lot of those "checks." You sure they're "checks"?
 
More people will just start eating oatmeal or something else for breakfast, is all. Americans set themselves up for these price gouging scams, by being too stupid to boycott crooks and exercise some common sense re instant gratification.
 
So they are charging $6/dz for eggs plus whatever was factored into the menu price when they are paying far less.

This sounds like price gouging.
