What is Jean-Baptiste Say known for?

Answered in Jean-Baptiste Say's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

I am primarily known for my formulation of what has come to be called 'Say's Law,' which asserts that production itself generates the wherewithal to purchase the goods produced. In simpler terms, a product is no sooner created than it affords the value of some other product to the full extent of its own worth. This principle highlights the self-regulating nature of markets when unfettered by artificial constraints.
