Enjoy your ethanol, Libs.
ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THAT THIS IS ALL HAPPENING RIGHT AFTER THE MINIMUM WAGE WAS INCREASED ABOUT 15%
When will it become more profitable to use corn for food again instead of cashing in on the ethanol subsidy?
Our time has run out. What's needed now is someone close to the personna of Francisco Franco to march on Washington and overthrow these imbeciles.
It has been going on for the last two years; it’s not just the current farm bill / food for fuel nonsense. The inflation numbers we were seeing were BS.
$25 for a pie?
Is it just a coincidence or could it have something to do with the fact that Republicans took over Congress in 1992(16 years ago)and controlled it until 2006?
Corn into ethanol......WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee........
And that goes double for penguins!!
All the Lib,green weenie policies are now being felt by working Americans.
What a lame-@$$ article. Anybody can bake a graham cracker crust in their sleep, because you don’t bake a freaking graham crackercrust. And just because you can make a list of all the bad things happening in the world, it doesn’t justify 25 dollars for a key lime pie.
I must be missing something.
My stores are generating more sales and therefore lower prices than I can remember.
Yes, it is on certain items, but who promised me out of season or prepared foods at a low price? Even those are in so many new varieties that there must be some demand at those prices...or convenience.(6.09 for raspberries, yes two weeks ago they were 2/5.00 and two weeks from now?)
Basics seem only slightly higher and it is over a 2 year period, at least.
A new farm bill, stalled in Congress, would expand farm subsidies for Farmers NOT TO Plant.
Currently we force 38m acres out of production.
And congress wants to increase that amount.
Europeans know hunger more than Americans. Except for the Great Depression, America has never gone hungry. Europeans will protect their farmers by any means they can, the rest of the world be damned, because there still is a generation who remembers WWII. Americans have bastardized our farm programs - to insure stable food prices to the rich and poor - through bad politics and stupid lawmakers. We are now reaping the results of senseless environmental policies and ignorant lawmakers who still think milk comes from a little carton box.
I don’t suppose anyone buying a $20 or $25 dollar pie is worried about inflation.
High labor costs, etc., the cost of doing business in N.Y. city not a few bucks for ingredients for a key lime pie. Check the other posting, folks. According to the pie maker it’s heat waves in California and Europe, falling dollar, blah blah blah.
