    No doubt egg prices and futures are suffering from the stock market drop. People are liquidating to cover their positions. It is pandemonium on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

    35,000 foot view …

    In the late 60’s my dad could afford this home and support a family of seven on an encyclopedia sales rep’s salary …

    Dude, you bring entertainment value to this board, I’ll give you that. No matter what happens you will find a way to be pissed off about it.

    The conservative solution would be to subsidize Encyclopedia companies and close the internet.

    Unlike your post mine wasn’t partisan, but more like a “What the hell happened ?” Imagine being able to afford a three bedroom, two bathroom house, near the beach and supporting a family of seven on an encyclopedia sales rep’s salary today.

    Seems to me that erosion of purchasing power is a bigger issue than transient increases in inflation.

    Home ownership rates are higher now and quality of homes are higher now. What are you using to say people are worse off?

    Eggs were $5.97 at Aldi yesterday, same as they’ve been for several weeks.
    AAA says National average for gas is $3.08, down from $3.16 a month ago.
