#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.
