Who is upvoting this brain dead take?

Cars are sold for as much as they possibly can get consumers to pay. If they managed to lower the cost of production, price would also remain exactly the same because... They are charging as much as they possibly can.

Everything between the cost of making the car and that price is profit to shareholders.

So you actually think this strike is going to fundamentally change how they do business? With no additional regulation they will just decide to make less money and make no attempt to do exactly what they've been doing all these years which is to increase profits at all costs.
