Where the World’s Unsold Cars Go to Die
Above are photos of thousands and thousands of brand new, unsold cars in various locations from the U.S., Italy, U.K., Spain, Russia, and elsewhere.
Millions of unsold cars are left to deteriorate in old airports, parking lots, and new tracks of land being bought to store these cars. Auto companies won’t sell them at a cheap price because it wouldn’t be profitable to.
The car industry cannot stop making new cars because they would have to close their factories and lay off tens of thousands of employees. This would further add to the recession. Also the domino effect would be catastrophic as steel manufactures would not sell their steel. All the tens of thousands of places where car components are made would also be effected, indeed the world could come to a grinding halt.

capitalism is cool, correct, and sensible
car guy #1: “we have all these cars but no one will buy them for $20,000. how are we supposed to get our money”
car guy #2: “hey i have an idea! how about we sell them for $20. then at least we have $20 and we didn’t waste all that time and resources for nothing”
car guy #1: “wtf no, it’s obviously a much better idea to not sell them at all. that way we have $0 and a buncha cars that no one will ever drive”
car guy #2: “hmm, you’re right”
cool
