Well then the obvious answer should have been not to develop a $40,000+ economy car.
During all of this no one in their right mind should have realistically thought that this car would sell enough at the price they marked it at to turn a profit. I realize the government forced this since they are majority shareholders. But it's a clear example of good thought, terrible execution.
