Prices going up

I don't consider a $1000 Iphone affordable for "poor" people

If not made outside US, iphone would costs more than $1,000.
Some poor people would still buy iPhones with the affordable special monthly fees. I'm paying the monthly fee too though I don't really need to.

With so many eggs, you wouldn't think there was an egg shortage.

There wasn't any large eggs in 12, and only a few in 18 carton but a few flats in my grocery. And we live in the middle of egg country.

About $7 a dozen. Do you think I will quit eating eggs just because they are 60 cents apiece? Meanwhile you cough up $7 for a cup of coffee at Starbucks or large order of fries at the Burger barn. How many eggs do you eat in a day?

It is a joke. But I see a lot of people with them. I consider them a second-rate phone personally. I want a phone, not a hand computer or game play station.

I only got a smartphone because they went to app only to access key boxes

Apple is not just the iphone. It's their ecosystem. I like my Apple News, Apple TV, and Apple Music.

None of those are dependent on cheap labor

Most of the production of Iphones is automated. The U.S. just didn't keep up with the automation

Americans now want their iPhones and willing to pay, that is affordable monthly fees.
Apple is a trillion dollar company thanks to globalization. Apple also makes money from international sales.

It is hurting some bakeries. Eggs are called for in many of their products. Don't get me wrong. I love eggs. They say if kept in refrigerator, they are good up to 3 weeks past expiration date on carton. When I was younger, I thought they were bad on expiration date. Not true.

Think about being in business that uses eggs in almost everything they sell. That would hurt.

That's good to know. Sometimes it's hard to peel the shell from the inside stuff. I heard fresher eggs are harder to unpeel.

I heard Trump will announce a plan to deal with egg prices next week. I'd been patiently waiting since last week.
