We have a few in the church who raise their own and at least one who has enough hens that he supplies eggs for many families in the church. They seem to prefer the farm raised, chicken yard eggs, and the truth be told his prices are just slightly above the grocery.
So, following that grand capitalist theory of “never regulate what folks can make on their own”, I suspect a lot lot lot of people will just start growing their own. Sounds like a good time to invest in the little chicks.
They’ll then have to pass ordinances banning chickens except in places they approve. By then, though, the commercial flock will be considerable smaller, and that will cause the price to explode, and that will then violate that capitalist dictum, “don’t expect high prices for easily obtained items to lower demand or entrepreneurial spirit.”
They’ll have people raising chickens in their basements. That will lead to “Chicken Police” and a “War Against Eggs”.
ATF will become ATFE.
Then Chicken Cartels will rule Mexico, and Chicken Shit will rule Washington.
And eventually everyone will finally realize that this is really, really stupid.
“And eventually everyone will finally realize that this is really, really stupid.”
Dreamer.
At least a third of the populace will demand more regulation as a solution and denounce the free market as the cause.
