"You really didn't say anything, then, given the context of Government Motors."

Well, no I didn't. But I wasn't trying to. I was just commenting on your claim that a Toyota rep. admitted that the Prius wasn't making a profit. But that was in regard to the first generation and was years ago. The current generation probably does make a profit, although likely nothing like they do on other cars. So it is neither a loss leader nor a cash cow.

With regards to GM. Well, if the winger nutjobs are successful at boycotting it, GM will likely fail. At a tremendous cost to the tax payer. But, that would be cheap to make a partisan political point, wouldn't it?
