ELI5: why are we producing 900k barrels of oil per day above demand, if the markets are already low?

I feel like this just makes it worse, because the supply is way too high and the value goes down. I know I'm oversimplifying, but I don't understand why production isn't slowing down to allow the price to catch up.

You want to build a lemonade stand. It will cost $50 for the table, glasses, pitcher, lemons, and sugar. Your dad offers to loan you the money, but you have to pay him back $5 every day (or whatever you make if it's less than $5) or you'll be grounded.

On day 1, you sell $10 worth of lemonade at $1 per glass. You pay back the $5, then you buy a new toy with the other $5.

On day 2, the kid across the street sees how much money you're making, and he wants a new toy, too, so he opens his own lemonade stand. Today, you only sell $5 worth of lemonade. You pay back your dad, but you worked all day for nothing. Oh, well. Tomorrow will be better.

On Day 3, two other kids open up lemonade stands. If you keep selling lemonade for the same price, there's no way that you'll make enough to pay back Dad. So, you cut the price of your lemonade in half. You finally make $5, but now, all of the other kids are kind of annoyed with you.

On day 4, all of the other kids have to pay back their loans, too, so everybody starts charging less. By the end of the day, everyone on the block is selling lemonade for a penny per glass. Everybody's selling a lot of glasses, but it's so cheap that nobody's making money, or even covering their loans, but making a quarter is better than making nothing at all.

What everyone's hoping for at this point is that a few kids will give up and stop selling lemonade. If you can get back to one or two stands, you can make some money. Unfortunately, everyone has debts, and nobody wants to be grounded, so they all stick around day after day.
