I get my food from a grocery store, and I bet you do too.

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?

you can't know that. in fact, you can't know how they'll spend your money you give them for beans and rice

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.
