Egg prices in February 2017 were 36.6 percent lower than they were at their August 2015 peak. Eggs represent only 0.1 percent of the entire CPI-U market basket.Isn't it interesting that at the same time more states are legalizing pot, this is going on?

"According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, in 2017 more than 72,000 Americans died of drug overdoses, a 37 percent increase from 2015 and a nearly 100 percent increase since 2008."
Even more interesting, it’s almost directly proportionate.
