was to show that by buying a Toyota, you are supporting American workers. While profits do go to the big whigs in Japan, the blue collar workers here are still supported.
The true point of my comment is that I don't think it matters if you drive a toyota / chevy / ford / or dodge, it's all about who wins, and that's chevy and ford.

Unfortunately allot of the people who buy Toyota’s feel the same way you do, that the cars are imported but assembled here so it’s not so bad because they are supporting American workers. But buy purchasing an American made car has a domino affect on the rest of the country financially. Not only does the car company benefit themselves but the textile companies as well (the steel manufactures, the rubber companies, plastic companies etc.) and they keep more American’s employed then Toyota does. Even if those companies import the raw materials they profits still stay here.
