    you talk about it as though there are only two people, and each only needs to make one decision: the farmer whether to produce, and a milk drinker whether to buy it. there are dozens of actors and factors.

      If people stopped buying milk at current levels, then it would not be produced at current levels. The dozens of actors and factors would all be a part of that decrease. The market would shrink, not dissappear necessarily.

          Every decreased market that ever existed should be sufficient. Fondue pots and miter boxes should get you there.

            that’s not a test. it’s a survey. I’m looking for a test for your theory. I think it is undisprovable.

            all the people involved in those markets were making decisions distinct from the people making decisions in the milk market. I dont think we can find anything so conclusive.

              The events were that demand decreased. Yes, demand could decrease in the milk market. Whether or not it will is a separate question. They are different in that the market decreased in the former and not the latter.

                    to be clear, you have made an assertion without evidence. a claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. I don’t believe you, and no one should.
