Your &quot;meat points&quot; idea is horrible, because it destroys market knowledge.<p>That is:  In a free market, there are two things, supply and demand, and they communicate via price.  In your idea, you fix the amount of supply, for absolutely no reason.  All that&#x27;s left is for the price to move the demand to where it meets (no pun intended) the supply.  But you&#x27;re throwing away half of the ability of the market to respond - the supply side, and you&#x27;re doing it <i>for absolutely no reason</i>.<p>Um, unless you&#x27;re doing it as research.  That... might be interesting research, but I suspect that it will show that &quot;supply and demand&quot; makes a more efficient market than &quot;demand alone&quot;.
