    Well how many hours are they even working? Who the hell is buying $50,000 cars right now?

      Maybe not this month, but things will go back to normal and people will want their $50000 cars

        Things will not be normal for a long time. This is going to be a severe global recession and thats going to depress auto sales a lot. Also, oil is $24 a barrel, which makes electric cars at even more a disadvantage.
