Mike, If you would do a deep search on the FDRCD double secret web site you
would find that Toyta paid over a trillion dollars in US taxes last week.

Prove me wrong.

Moi? The quote is from the Autonews article. I make no claims of special
knowledge of batteries.

You are not wrong, Toyota pays numerous state, local and FICA taxes, but
they do not a single penny US Corporate income taxes.

Clearly you did not do a deep web search. The information is very easy to
find. Toyota pays significant US Federal Corporate Income Taxes. Instead of
just repeated the same old lies, look it up. Someone with your tremendous
research abilities should be able to find the details in just a few minutes.

Nice try, Toyota does not pay a single penny in US Corporate Income taxes.

If you actually did find a site that showed that Toyota pays US Corporate
Income taxes, you would have posted it as you do to try to prove other
things you post.
