Not tryna bait but y’all were complaining about the prices of eggs a few months ago. What do you think would happen if we suddenly gave everybody free food? The price of eggs would be $1 million per cartoon. Now nobody gets to eat eggs

Nah, I still get to eat eggs. Good luck to the rest of you, though.

that free food is still paid for. It’s just that the government will be buying it, not individual people or it would be a system like food stamps and people would buy the eggs with preallocated money neither of these would affect supply and demand to a large degree

Let’s say you are a farmer who sells eggs, if everyone has free food, then that means nobody is buying your eggs, and you are losing money. To stop this you need to incentivize people to buy more eggs, and the only method you have to do this is to lower the prices of eggs.

How is everyone going to have free food without the food. You need to buy eggs to make the food

If eggs are included in the free food people are being given then you have disproven your own original statement

You’re literally claiming that no one will have eggs because everyone will have them
