All the bickering aside, I think one thing that has not been mentioned during this whole bailout this, GM this, Toyota that is a very simple thing. Something that I think the American public does not know or maybe they don't care about.
The Military needs the Big 3. You see I work in the business of making sure our Submarine fleet is ready to go. Toyota, Honda and the rest of the import companies cannot make parts for our equipment. They are not allowed to. I cannot even purchase simple items such as bolt from a company that is foreign owned. I am not allowed.
A lot of the companies that supply the Big 3 would also go under if they left, these same companies supply the military.
What would do you suppose would happen if we had no logistical support for our militray? GM, Ford and Mopar don't only make cars. Just a thought.
and ah oh yeah, wouldn't be me if I didn't tell you Toyota sucks.
