yuppie and hippie leftists are always more about themselves first and then keeping the social classes below them satiated, but at a lower level. "I can have my Lexus as long as they are the ones driving a Chevy, getting my starbucks, cleaning up my dogs poop in the park, and drycleaning my shirts"
thing is, the money in our country belongs to the leftists and intelligentsia. all the old conservatives that had ideals are getting too old. you have the baby boomers now who run the show and since birth that whole generation has felt entitled and liberated socially. 'i feel entitled to my toyota because i worked so hard' as opposed to the old timers which was, 'if i buy a chevy truck others like me will prosper as well'.
I really don't have a problem sending your money where you want to. Right now I just can't stand the world conquest bit Toyota has going on. While the local branches of Toyota obviously care about providing business to the US, I hardly doubt one iota that Toyotas head management in HAPAN gives a rats ass if our country is supported or not. They just want to suck the money out of us, I think. I don't really get the same impression on Honda. Honda could outdo Hoyoda if they really wanted to. Honda is way more innovative. Nissan is French, which annoys me, but then sometimes I feel compelled to like their products because they put KILLER motors in their cars.
My main beef is Toyota and their extreme arrogance. I wouldn't mind seeing a couple monster recalls and lawsuits against them, and maybe a few lemons of theirs to hit market about now. Like for example, a Lexus LS where the wheels fall off. Or Camlees where the suspension breaks. Not enough to hurt anyone, but enough to bring em down a notch or two.
People are fools. Subaru makes as good a quality cars as Toyota, they just don't make as many models. Yet toyota is gold and Subaru is niche.
