Patent Claim Could Block Import of Toyota's Hybrid Cars
JynxMe writes "Paice is a tiny Florida company that has patented a way to apply force to a car's wheels from an electric motor or internal combustion engine. Paice thinks that Toyota is infringing on its technology, and is going after the automaker in court. The legal spat became much more serious for Toyota this week, when the US International Trade Commission decided to investigate the matter. In the worst-case scenario for Toyota, the commission could ban the hybrid Camry, third-generation Prius, Lexus HS250h sedan and Lexus RX450h SUV."

Rush Limbaugh. Or some other dishonest idiot with a conservative agenda. Seriously, the GP is about as far from the truth as you can get.
That is also mostly local taxes going to local infrastructure...something taxes were meant to be used for, and that pretty much everyone uses. It isn't some people working supplementing those that don't or can't afford something that should be personal responsibility.
Got kids you can't afford medical care for? That shows you couldn't afford kids!!
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.........
Keep shitting on the US
You didn't even read the report did you? Notice the .GOV tag? But of course not, you're an "enlightened" US citizen. You have a lot of NFL or NBA television to watch, and don't have time for those things.
Summary: I'm not shitting the US. But even your government KNOWS the US is up shit's creek without a paddle. Enjoy your plunging dollar.

Do not let the door hit you on the way out. Oh and if you have already emigrated then there is no "we" anymore from your perspective. You left, and amazingly I would have never noticed except you said something.
Translation: you're not good enough, and the malpractice insurance runs too much for your past transgressions.
