What happens when ASICs cost more to produce than what they're worth?

Will companies call a quits?

Once the difficulty gets high enough and say a 20GH/s chip (22nm or some shit) costs 30 cents a chip, but will only make 10 cents in its lifetime, no one will buy and it'll be a stand still because of the saturation of the mining network.

Thoughts?
