In what specific ways do **YOU** believe the White House and unions are
involved with the idling of Toyota factories, as described ONLY in the
article you posted? Below is the text of the article you posted, in its
entirety.

Toyota Idling Texas, Kentucky Plants to Cut Inventory
Tuesday, February 16, 2010
Associated Press

Toyota says it plans to idle production at assembly plants in Texas and
Kentucky while it grapples with massive recalls in the United States.
Toyota spokesman Mike Goss says a plant in San Antonio, Texas, has scheduled
production breaks for the weeks of March 15 and April 12. Goss says a plant
in Georgetown, Ky., has scheduled a non-production day on Feb. 26 and may
not produce vehicles on three more days in March and April.

He says Toyota is adjusting production so it does not build up too much
inventory for dealers. Toyota has recalled 8.5 million vehicles around the
world to address problems with gas pedals, floor mats and brakes.

Toyota says its workers will be retained and will receive additional
training.

Well the Texas plant build Tundras. As far as I know Tundras have not
been implicated in the vehcile speed control issues. Truck sales in
general are in the toliet, and the Tundra is now the oldest design in
the segment. In my opinion, even when new, the current Tundra was a
weak entry in the field. Now it is weak and old. I don't think it
should be a surprise that they might need to idle that factory.

I suppose the Kentucky plant slow down may be related to the
unintended acceleration complaints since it builds Camrys. But the
fact that the current Camry is one of the oldest designs in the mid
car segment can't be helping. Accord sales were up alot more than
Camry sales were down in January. So maybe the UA concerns pushed a
lot of potential Camry buyers into Accords.

On the other hand, maybe it is just the general lousy economy I know
I'd like a new car, but I'm not willing to go out and get one now.
Maybe next year.

Since Toyota said they were not laying anyone off, how is it that you
are claiming the feeding frenzy is putting a lot of people out of
work?

I saw an article the other day that talked about how dealer service
department were pulling in a lot of extra revenue becasue of all the
recalls. I guess there really is a silver lining to most clouds. If
you are a Toyota technician, this is probaly a big pay day. I suppose
if you are a Toyota salesman, you might be looking at moving over to
the Honda store around the corner.

Non sequitur: Asking someone why their statement doesn't match the
supporting evidence.

It's a new world!
