There is something I'm not quite understanding about GM's woes.

Why can't GM make a profit selling a car while Toyota can?

Most of Toyota's cars are still made in Japan (about 1/5th of units are made in the US). Japan autoworker wages are high (>$40/hour). Japan is an aging society and there must be many ex-Toyota retirees.

I'm curious about this. Any thoughts?
