I’ve been arguing with some of my conspiracy oriented friends for years that ZeroHedge stuff is bullshit, it’s just hard to argue economics between two people when neither knows enough about it worth a damn. This time he picked a wrong crowd. Way too many people know about automotive industry to call this utter bullshit out.
