.........Funny how Japan and Toyota can make vehicles profitably here IN the US of A, but we CAN'T. Might have something to do with profit and GREED.
Japanese companies can make vehicles profitably here because they do not have something the big 3 have. UNIONS with a much higher wage rate.

Union work rules do slow down production and productivity at many companies.
