When you buy a Toyota made in the US, Toyota pays wages to American workers, but they take the profits back to Japan.
When you buy from an American company, more of the profits stay here, the investors here benefit from the dividends and capital gains, more of the taxes stay here, more of the parts are made here, and it's good karma.
I meant he was correct about it being a feel good thing. As you say, it has been amply demonstrated many times in the past that more of your car $$ stays here if you buy big three vice foreign.
