The ex-coach and the not-really hillbilly are set to face off next week and New York’s mayor may be on the fast track to Rikers, but all I want to talk about is eggs. Surely, I am not the only one who has stood in the Publix dairy aisle scribbling second mortgage paperwork to pay for a carton of scramblers. Only this week, wannabe vice president JD Vance held a carton aloft as he blamed $4 eggs on current Vice President Kamala Harris. CourtesyPat Beall is an editorial writer and columnist for the Sun Sentinel, focusing mainly on Palm Beach County issues. The egg price tag was $2.99, but no matter: It’s the season of political math. Harris, meanwhile, has been preaching the gospel of greedflation. No one wants to talk about how hungry Chinese hogs, the bad drought, the big flood, the rise of Big Grocery, and Vlad’s obsession with Ukraine are all built into price of a single egg. But if you want to use eggs as a political rallying cry, you have to talk about the long, strange trip from henhouse to checkout line. Start with the grain that feeds the hens that lay the eggs. In 2020, a line of intense thunderstorms burned through four midwestern states, devastating crops used to feed livestock.
