Toyota poised to take...? ...all the future billions and billions in auto market profits, now that GM is fast washing out to nothing? And then bringing those multi-billions back to socialist Japan where they're already sitting on $30 trillion in savings and reserves?

Remember... This question is about your free markets and open competition...
Uh-huh. Check who the primary stockholders are, and then check withholding for dividends paid overseas. You'll need the formula quick.
Strong enough to lift $30 trillion?That's what you've transferred so far... Took about 40 years.
I would definitely call national health insurance and oligopoly bank system with shared services a socialist country. H*ll, I live here.
Mind telling me how this is bloated and mismanaged?

Fella, Toyota headquarters is a 30 minute train ride from me. Got any idea what a board of directors is, or a primary shareholder? And I'm not a Democrat - can't stand rich class American political parties.
 
That doesn't include the fact that Toyota cars that are manufactured in the U.S. and bought in the U.S. are put on the American GDP, not the Japanese GDP. In other words, the U.S. will end up with those multi-billions, not Japan.
 
While Toyota is based in Japan, all of the large car manufacturers are multi- national anymore. Parts are made in a dozen different countries, they're assembled in several different countries, and then shipped wherever. Buying a Toyota isn't transferring a whole lot of money to Japan anymore, especially since much of their stock is owned by people around the globe... as is GMs. $30 trillion? Uh, no. Toyota has never sold even close to $30 trillion worth of cars. And BTW despite the NHI Japan is far more capitalistic then the US is. They don't depend on the government to do everything for them but instead work to better themselves. You Dems could learn something from them.

Check your facts before embarrassing yourself next time. You Dems really need to step up your game because the media aren't always going to be around to protect you. At some point you'll need to use some logic.
