Answer
D. Jean-Baptiste Say
Explanation
Jean-Baptiste Say is best known for his law often summarized as "Supply creates its own demand." He argued that the production of goods and services generates a corresponding demand for other goods and services. This theory implies that any production automatically creates enough demand to purchase all goods produced.
