    That isn’t how supply/demand works. If you are creating a demand, which you are when buying the product, you are incentivizing someone to create a supply.

    If enough people didn’t buy the product then there wouldn’t be a demand and the person that pays the “milker” wouldn’t pay them anymore.

    I believe that’s in the laws of macroeconomics (?)

      supply and demand is a price seeking theory. you are misapplying the term to use it this way

      we made milk before we had money. there is no reason to believe it will ever stop
