Hmm. For the pen example, isn't it true that the pen manufacturer has a limit on their income? If they have a small shop that makes pens by hand, and you order a million of them, how are they going to fulfill the order?

If you sell a physical object, someone somewhere in the supply chain has a limited income, even if it's not you.
