Should have said yes and then marked them up 1000%

Say yes, take the money, and then "lose" the ship.

I was curious how likely this is. Apparently up to 1,382 shipping containers are lost at sea each year. 💀

Why

"The amount we could export would not solve their egg shortage,"

when

"Go fuck yourselves"

would work just fine?

When we had Biden, EU stepped up when we had a formula shortage because a supply chain issue, likely saving lives. But this? This is just sad, no lives on the line, just an industry with high prices not being handled properly by a shitty administration everyone hates.

Btw, places with pasture raised chickens are doing fine, although their eggs were already higher because of humane practices. This is very much a self inflicted problem and deserves no sympathy.
