    They won’t profit less, line must go up. They’d charge double the difference and blame immigrants and Obama.

      sure they could charge more, but the market wouldn’t swallow it so they would sell less. if they could charge more for eggs, they would be doing so right now, for extra profit.

        They would collude. All eggs would go up just like during covid, and they wouldn’t lose any sales.

          If they could do that, they would do that right now. If they could charge more there’s nothing stopping them from doing that today. We are already at the maximum price they can charge.
