An Avian flu outbreak, control protocols, and then some absolutely decimated the eggy market.  Who knows how many millions upon millions of chickens have been culled since the start of it all. 

Roughly 1.5 years ago I could buy 18 eggs for $0.89.
Now, today 18 eggs costs ~ $7.19 (for the cheapos).

What does it matter? Those subsidies aren't going to keep prices down if an avian flu outbreak effects supply.

I get that subsidies are usually used to keep a commodity down, but I don't think throwing money at a problem like a large percentage of an egg producing population dying off and effecting the total supply of eggs. It can buy new equipment and help pay for workers etc but at the end of the day when the supply goes down and the demand is up the price is going to go up.

I get that. But more money isn't going to necessarily produce more eggs...them pocketing the money is aside the point. I'm not going to act like I have full understanding of the situation, but outside of problems like understaffing, how is throwing money at that industry going to create more eggs so the prove can be lowered? I can see it being a help for resources to contain and prevent future outbreaks. Otherwise it ses like it's just an opportunity for big farms to pocket the money like you were saying . There should be a lot more oversight into how subsidies are spent. They obviously aren't having the intended effect

There's alot of pros and cons to farm subsidies. What were seeing here is tantamount to price gouging. Companies like cal Maine could of course operate with in very comfortable margins but instead have chosen to take advantage of the situation for record profits. I wish idiots would refuse to pay these prices. Just stop eating eggs till this blows over. We need to push states to sue these companies to get some of the money back and force these companies to comply. No dealz either.

Subsidies for the dairy industry are not to keep prices cheap.  The subsidies enact a price support.  Meaning the point of these subsidies are to ensure it is profitable for farmers to continue producing these products.  There is a difference between consumer subsidies (price control) and producer subsidies (price support).

Yeah guys there going to find a way to make it cost more no matter what the risk is I know I hope you all see the bigger picture that I’m saying yeah eggs ain’t much but everyday it’s something you know ?

Not bragging but I make decent money but it’s like I’m starting to jus get by more and more Vs a year ago have money in my pocket back years ago saving money with coupons or off brand food was not so much interesting now I save as much as possible

Cigarettes went up it’s jus awful man Biden screwed us man he rly did I cnt vote but if I could it wouldn’t be him we’re so far in the deep shit jus bc a new president comes it isn’t going to be like a light switch it’s going to take years to fix this I mean rly I feel bad for the generation coming up ..

Now Biden is sending some of our tanks over to Ukraine i understand in the beginning to help them but man billions upon billions upon billions were funding this war while we struggle to stay stable it’s sad man

Egg price is a direct supply-demand effect, I guess Biden could start laying eggs himself and if he could lay a couple million a day it would decrease prices.  He is such an asshole that he won't do that for the nation.  Trump lays the best eggs.  Beautiful and huge.

Right and it's my point that it's an inflated demand caused by a crisis which companies that are unaffected or less effected are taking advantage of. That's called price gouging. It's not only bad for your brand it's unethical.

Look I'm normally a pretty free market guy but in the event of a crisis I don't think it's right to take advantage of folks. A comfortable profit sure the market demands it but any further is simpley unethical. If these companies can't afford to operate because of a failure to forsee something as highly probable as this or afford to weather the few months or whatever it takes to build back egg laying chickens they probably shouldn't be in business. :facepalm:

I raised chickens for a stretch. Felt stupid when I found out that they don't need a rooster to lay eggs. The rooster I did have was mean AF. He picked on one hen in particular and tore out her tailfeathers after some in out, in out.
