  1. The price of eggs was the excuse but racism was the reason.

  2. The prices only go up. People buy less and less but corporate profits continue to break records year over year.

  3. If the GOPers cannot afford eggs, maybe they should stop eating avocado toast.

  4. Sorry, this is just painfully fallacious.

    The people most concerned about grocery prices are not the same people who annually spend a lot at Xmas time.

    It’s almost like we have a class system and the ones at one strata have different priorities than ones at other strata.

    Voting for cheaper eggs was mind boggling stupid because nothing can or will be done about egg prices regardless of who is in WH. Inflation is inflation and it stays up until you have a recession. Dumbfucks believe Trump can pass some bill that makes food cost less.

    ….actually there is one way to make eggs cheaper at the register and that is to provide MASSIVE subsidies to the agricultural you want cheaper. That involves massive, unsustainable deficit spending which I guess Trump is not above doing but the middle term consequences of that move would be devastating.

  5. I gotta be honest I’m buying a new computer because mine is dying and I’m afraid of the cost going up 50 percent when mine dies. That said, I didn’t vote for the asshole who is gonna turn us into a theocracy.

  6. How much of this was just preemptive buying before things get even more expensive?

  7. That’s what credit cards are for. Whine about price of eggs, drop 3K on Black Friday, then whine about how they can’t make ends meet because they either pay the CC bill or buy eggs.

  8. Of course. When times a hard people want deals. I shopped more on Black Friday because I wanted the 20-30% off. Will the season as a whole be record-breaking? I doubt it.

  9. This just illustrates the growing wealth gap. Also, the growing credit gap bc people bought everything on credit last week.

  10. These things always disappear like that caravan that is moving at a glacial pace. I guess it will get here someday.

  11. the sooner you accept that for-profit mass media is propaganda the easier everything is to understand

  12. Maybe people are using Black Friday to stock up on things that will get hit with tariffs later.

  13. NBC is reporting most Americans went deeper into Credit Card Debt

  14. 54% of Americans read below 6th grade level.

    There is no reason to assume they’re better at math.

  15. Could also be some people buying things they need before the tariffs hit so that they can avoid those price hikes for the next two to four years?

  16. “Stop buying avocado toast” but make it millennial

  17. There’s a lot of people struggling in our country, and a lot of people doing pretty well. Both things are true.

  18. “This just in, using the economy as a reason they voted for Trump was just an excuse, sources say.”

  19. I got some 6 year old video games for less than 5 dollars each.. 3 of them. Wtf are you all buying?

  20. Black Friday is generally a scam. If you track prices on Keepa.com for Amazon, you’ll see a lot of the deals are the same price or more.

  21. Of course everyone knew they had always been at war with Eastasia and forever at peace with Eurasia. 

  22. When the dollar is devalued by inflation, all business as usual becomes ‘record-breaking’.

  23. Maybe they all made lots of money on the secondary market for Trump logo-ed Bibles, sneakers, virtual trading cards, guitars……..

  24. Anybody have a list on what we should stock up on before tariffs hit?
