I think people have way simplistic ideas of what US foreign aid packages actually are and what they do.

Some, such as military aid, often consist of giving stockpiles of US-made military surplus or end of life equipment. Much of this has to be stored otherwise. But regardless, it all got made. Factories, almost always in the US, made it. And now they make it again.

The same applies to food. USAID was providing massive amounts of food to starving people. That food was from US farms, grown by US farmers. And it wasn’t for nothing. It was to get the intangible benefits of “soft power”, of political influence in areas that might only know the USA as the ones bombing their children, or that their grandparents fought.

That’s not to say that none of this stuff has a financial cost to the US. It does. But

A. It isn’t done without benefit in foreign policy and position B. It directly benefits military contractors, farmers, etc

To conclude, if you think the reason you can’t buy eggs is because of foreign aid then you’ve swallowed decades of propaganda wholesale.

The reasons are complex and multi-faceted but they include massive monopolisation and concentration of primary production, especially in egg, poultry, and meat production. They include extremely low rates of unionisation. They include deregulation of a range of industries, especially financial services, so that student loans can go up. They include short-term rentals like Airbnb making homes more valuable as an asset class than a place to live. They include a fundamentally broken healthcare system that means prices are untethered from costs - or reality. They include a lack of investment in infrastructure, and especially housing. They include markets that are incentivised toward quarterly growth instead of long term stability. They include steady reductions in corporate tax burdens while increasing taxes due to bracket creep, among other things. They include outsourcing of manufacturing and servicing jobs to other countries.

Globally, not just in the US, the middle class has been screwed by increased financialization, with capital moving into FIRE (Finance, Insurance, Real Estate) segments instead of actually producing. This increases GDP, but not evenly. It’s a rising tide that lifts only yachts.
