2 2 deaths per year attributed to the Toyota defects. Out of 40,000 annually in the US, 2 per year caused by Toyota. There is more to this than meets the eye. The government has a vested interest in driving sales away from Toyota now that it is a direct competitor of Toyota.

This is basically an inquisition of Toyota by the owners of GM and Chrysler.

3 Lest we forget, the Toyota plants are located in 'Right to Work' states and are NON UAW. Any further questions?

8 Seems like Rantburgers are on to this one. Toyota closed its last union plant in Fremont, CA. As pointed out there the remainder of Toyota plants are in right-to-work states. All those union trips to the Whitehouse were not just social visits. There is more here than being reported by the press. See "witch hunt": http://biggovernment.com/brjohnson/2010/02/17/toyota-and-the-union-backed-government-led-witch-hunt/

10 Don't forget card check. It was designed for the UAW to go after the car plants in the south.

11 Payback to the Unions for their support by bludgeoning Toyota. That's all this is.

And since the Government now owns GM (not to mention the Union owning the Democraps) - there is a very big conflict of interest here.

12 When I worked in a GM truck assembly we built 1400 trucks per day. We knew from simple statistics that 3 of those trucks would be involved in a fatal accident.

If we could of figured out which 3, GM might be in better shape today.
