The Japanese know where their bread is buttered. They benefited from our getting their heads right.
Look at them now, 50% of the cars in America are made in Japan.
Or at least by Japanese Companies. Many of them are made in the US, for the cheap labor (and reduced shipping costs). My Mazda was built in a Ford plant in Michgan, and that line has been since 1990. Toyota just annouced they are building a new truck plant in San Antonio, and everyone here is all a twitter about it.
