This is wrong in so many ways.
Making cows(not beasts) less viable to grow because they are more expensive because the farmers aren't getting money for their other body parts is a win!
Less leather bought = more expensive cows = less people able to afford cows = less cows murdered.
You're not considering that the meat will still be sold, and the leather doesn't actually decide how many cows are killed more than the meat does.
Yes, the person did take that into account. That was the whole point. If leather can’t be sold, meat prices will have to become higher (if farmers are not to get less money per cow). This will lower demand for meat, and less cattle will be raised.
It means I’ll be eating beef while poor people won’t.
Probably the dumbest boast I've read all day.
Glad you liked it. Cows are tasty especially wrapped in bacon. Don’t bother downvoting me, I have votes values hidden so I don’t even see them. lol.
Cool.
Meat will be replaced by meat replacement products. There'll be less demand for meat, and there's also less demand for leather. Good for cows.
You're not understanding what I said at all.
