      So the factory farms abuse animals, but since the grocery store is paying them with money I gave the grocery store, it’s okay now. How could I know that paying for the product of the factory farm would make them buy more from that factory farm?

          True that is a huge leap to say that if people purchase something consistently the grocery store will restock it. They will probably just leave those shelves empty once their current stock is gone.
