A Tupolev

I don't know why I'm getting into this debate with someone who is obvously a socialist, but sometimes debating with liberal idiots is fun.

The information you are posting here you must be pulling out of your rear. 76% of the parts used to "produce" Toyotas are manufactured within 400 miles of its three US plants by American workers. Here is just one of the many articles that back up this information:

Toyota has also announced plans for investment in more American factories including two new engine plants. Here a portion of another article:

The two proposed plants represent more than $1 billion in investment by Toyota-$700 million in Indiana and $400 million in West Virginia. About 1,300 jobs are expected at the truck plant and another 300 are expected at the engine plant.

Toyota President Hiroshi Okuda, who was on hand for ceremonies at all three locations, says that when the two newest plants are fully up to speed Toyota will be building 1.2 million vehicles and 800,000 engines annually in North America.

Here is the link to the whole article:

Toyota is investing billions of dollars into the US and employing tens of thousands of Americans. Do a google search and you will find lots of data.

I'm proud to say I'm a conservative capitalist beliver in free enterprise and free trade. If Toyota can produce a better product that consumers want and can manage their factories more efficiently, more power to them. And even better if they are employing Americans and pumping billions into our economy. It seems that you socialist would like to restrict this free enterprise to protect poorly managed companies like GM.
