Toyota is now the biggest car manufacturer in history and they hire more people outside Japan than in it.

Go Capitalistic CHINA!!!!
The problem is that Japan was a capitalist, liberal, democratic ally. China is for all intents and purposes (or all intensive purposes as many CP members often say) a capitalist country but still a largely corrupt, oppressing, communist country with ambitions that may not exactly align with the western democracies of the world.
