In my area of Georgia, The Poultry Captial of the World, most of the population is from outside of the United States. If the Immigration Department were to show up, almost all of the chicken processing factories would shut down.

All of the plants, including Tyson, are within a few miles of each other. Tyson may not be a part of this indictment, but they do rig their prices. Maybe the Hillary lobby is covering for them?

I wish Sonny Perdue would do something and make our lives better, but when he was our governor, he did not do a thing.


In this modern communications age, I’m actually surprised we could have a cartel controlling the price and supply of chickens.

There was a Tyson processing in the town we lived in before we moved to Spain.

If you’ve ever bought fast food chicken you’ve bought from all of them. About the only way to avoid it is to raise and process your own.

They need better hen supervisors.

And better interns. Kramerica never had a chance!

And someday, in a galaxy far far away, they will be convicted and pay some fines and we will still pay high prices and the gooberment will piss away the small amount paid in fines.

Nothing new to see here citizen, move along.

Nah, I don’t do much fast food, and no chicken, just burgers or pizza. And at sit-down restaurants I always get steak.
The times I’ve had Tyson chicken (from the supermarket) it was very tough. Perdue is better, IMO...

The Country burns, a Race War is imminent, a successful Coup is in progress and we worry about paying $.50 a pound more for Chicken. I’m just glad we can still buy Chicken.

#13. Re “I hope they’re (chickens) are not in bed with the Clintons”.

Well, if they are female chickens, you know both Bill and Hillary will be in bed with them, and the younger, the better.

Talk about an “ECH”!!!!
