Do you think we can expect some great deals on Toyota vehicles after the recall issues are resolved?
Question by Mr. Atoz: Do you think we can expect some great deals on Toyota vehicles after the recall issues are resolved?
One would think that the company would try and offer some major incentives to to boost interest in their products. I doubt many people are looking for a new Toyota now, but over the next year or so will there be some great deals on new models?
Best answer:
Answer by Rapid Fire
Actually; a lot of people are looking for a new Toyota. Not everyone jumped on the Panic Button when a few throttles got stuck.
And, yes, Toyota is currently working on some incentive plans to get consumers back to the brand. Same as every other Major Manufacturer has done after a massive recall.
I would not hesitate to buy a new Toyota if I was in the market for a new car. A faulty gas pedal would be a welcome relief from the problems I’ve had with the electronic steering system in my 2006 Malibu. GM will not admit there’s a problem with it in spite of the fact that every component except the steering wheel has been replaced. At least Toyota admitted fault and is doing something about it.

Will China face repercussions on a larger scale from all of the recalls?
Question by : Will China face repercussions on a larger scale from all of the recalls?
Will our appetite for goods made in China lessen after all of these findings or will we as Americans keep going with our insataible need for cheaply manufactured goods? I for one am trying to avoid all products made in China though it is a hard thing to do. What say you all?
Best answer:
Answer by Mental Rabbi
China pays it labor force much less than the Americans.
The Americans will continue to buy Chinese products, even though they are tainted with lead or even poison just to save a few pennies.
Then, when their child dies, they will try to sue for millions.

When it comes to American cars is this lady doing the correct action?
Question by Erudite: When it comes to American cars is this lady doing the correct action?
She drives an American car. Ar a stop light if she sees a driver with a foreign car she holds up a sign that says “Buy American”. She tries to shame the owners of foreign cars.
This is happing in Michigan.
Best answer:
Answer by Skyhawk
I wonder if she realizes that both Honda and Toyota are now built in the US and Ford and GM car components are now made in Mexico and/or Canada.
I don’t see how buying an inferior product helps anyone.
It doesn’t help the consumer and it doesn’t help the manufacturer. Recalls, lawsuits, and loss of confidence in the inferior product hurts over the long run.
American car companies had a monopoly for over 75 years. They squandered their monopoly by continuing to produce an inferior product. When the Japanese manufacturers started producing a better product, instead of raising quality, they use false patriotism to guilt people into buying junk.
I guess patriotism is a one way street. Americans are obligated to buy American cars, but the manufacturers have no patriotic obligation to produce a quality product.
I’d laugh at that lady because she’s probably on her way to get her transmission fixed for the third time.

Please help me answer the following question ASAP?
Question by rashrash27: Please help me answer the following question ASAP?
A well-known pharmaceutical company, Robins & Robins, is working through a public scandal. Three popular medications which they sell over-the-counter have been determined to be tainted with small particles of plastic explosive. It has not yet been determined where the plastic explosives came from, but over million in inventory is impacted. The inventory is located throughout the Western United States, and it is possible that it has also made its way into parts of Canada. A recall occurs but it is mostly unsuccessful.
Last fall, the FDA had promulgated an administrative rule which stated that all pharmaceutical companies which sold over-the-counter medications must incorporate a special tracking bar code (i.e. UPC bars) on all packaging, to ensure that recalls could be done with very little trouble. This bar code would have cost about $.35 (cents) per package, which would have cost the company nearly million on this batch of inventory.
Robins & Robins lobbied hard against this rule, and managed to get it stopped in the public comments period. They utilized multiple arguments, including the cost (which would be passed on to consumers). They also raised “privacy” concerns, which they discussed simply to get public interest groups upset. (One of the drugs impacted is used for assisting with alcoholism treatment – specifically for withdrawal symptoms and many alcoholics were afraid their use of the drug could be tracked back to them.) Robins & Robins argued that people would be concerned about purchasing the medication with a tracking mechanism included with the packaging and managed to get enough public interest groups against the rule. The FDA decided not to impose the rule.
The FDA decides to require all pharmaceutical companies to immediately implement the tracking bars (UPC) as a result of the disaster with Robins & Robins. Robins & Robins decides not to challenge this and begins the process of adding them to all of their products. However, McFadden, Inc., a New York pharmaceutical realizes that this new requirement is going to bankrupt them immediately. McFadden did not participate in the original public comment period. However, this rule
is different from the rule which went through that public comment period, in that it specifically names 4 companies as being impacted, Robins & Robins, McFadden, Inc., Bayer, and Johnson & Johnson. On what bases can McFadden challenge this requirement imposed by the FDA? Provide at least two bases under the Administrative Procedures Act. Would the injuries from the Robins & Robins situation impact the chances that this challenge would be successful? Why or why not?
Question 2, please help me ASAP
It is discovered that Robins & Robins knew about the tainted medication two months earlier than they announced the recall. They hid it, and in fact, sent out contract buyers to try to buy up all of the medication off the shelves. Their “fake” recall failed. Using the Laura Nash method of analyzing ethical dilemmas, analyze the ethical dilemma faced by the CEO of Robins & Robins for the fact that they saved 35 cents/package and are now in the middle of a major, life threatening recall. Analyze their “fake” recall as well. Show all of the steps of the model and give a recommendation to the CEO of what to do now that the deaths are escalating. What is the “right” thing for the CEO to do in this case? Did the model help you come to this conclusion or did you use some other method? Explain.
Best answer:
Answer by STEPHEN
McFadden can challenge the requirement by asserting the cost element and that its implementation would bankrupt them and make the same arguments that Robins & Robins made. Additionally, they could argue that the FDA is estopped by its prior decision to not impose the Rule; this, of course, could be countered by the argument that McFadden waived all arguments against imposition of the Rule by its failure to participate in the earlier public comment period. McFadden could also argue that the FDA is over-reacting to a calamity which could not be foreseen and is so rare an occurrence that it is highly unlikely to happen again, to which the FDA would contend that its statutory authority compels that it impose the Rule. The injuries of the Robins & Robins matter would be the only significant impact which would cause the imposition of the Rule. The two bases: (1) It would not be an abuse of discretion to impose the Rule. (2). The FDA may lawfully take administrative notice of the Robins & Robins calamity.

What pharmaceutical drugs improve brain memory/recalling?
Question by Nicholas: What pharmaceutical drugs improve brain memory/recalling?
Hello,
I just had a quick question what pharmaceutical drug or vitamin helps improve brain memory or memory recalling. heh I have trouble remembering stuff alot.
Thanks for the answer!
Best answer:
Answer by oldtimekid2
Many of the pharmaceuticals that might help with memory are prescription based to fight certain mental ailments, but they also tend to have a lot of negative side effects.
That being said, the most popular natural products for brain health are Ginkgo Biloba, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Fish Oil (Omega 3), Phosphatidylserine (abbreviated PS), DMAE, Huperzine A, Bacopa Monnieri (or Monniera), and Vinpocetine.
There are a LOT of people that get a lot of benefit from any combination of those. I would suggest adding one at a time to your daily regiment as too much too fast can be tough. I would recommend starting pretty much in order of how I listed them… that’s a pretty good listing in order of popularity and effect for the general population. Good luck and I hope I helped!

Could someone explain what is the Consumer Bill of Rights when buying goods or utilizing the banking industry?

Consumer Bill of Rights
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Before the mid-twentieth century, consumers were without rights with regard to their interaction with products and commercial producers. Consumers had little ground on which to defend themselves against faulty or defective products, or against misleading or deceptive advertising methods.
By the 1950’s, a movement called consumerism began to gather a following, pushing for increased rights and legal protection against malicious business practices. By the end of the decade, legal product liability had been established in which an aggrieved party need only prove injury by use of a product, rather than bearing the burden of proof of corporate negligence.
In 1962, President John F. Kennedy presented a speech to the United States Congress in which he extolled four basic consumer rights, later called The Consumer Bill of Rights.

* 1 The Four Basic Rights
o 1.1 The Right to Be Safe
o 1.2 The Right to Choose Freely
o 1.3 The Right to Be Heard
o 1.4 The Right to Be Informed
o 1.5 The Right to Education
o 1.6 The Right to Service
+ 1.6.1 Advertising
+ 1.6.2 Financing
+ 1.6.3 Labeling and Packaging
* 2 International Support
* 3 Sources
[edit] The Four Basic Rights
While later expanded, the original six basic beliefs of consumer protection are the most widely recognized.
[edit] The Right to Be Safe
The assertion of this right is aimed at the defense of consumers against injuries caused by products other than automobile vehicles, and implies that products should cause no harm to their users if such use is executed as prescribed. Established in 1972 by the US federal government, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has jurisdiction over thousands of commercial products, and powers that allow it to establish performance standards, require product testing and warning labels, demand immediate notification of defective products, and, when necessary, to force product recall.
[edit] The Right to Choose Freely
The right to free choice among product offerings states that consumers should have a variety of options provided by different companies from which to choose. The federal government has taken many steps to ensure the availability of a healthy environment open to competition through legislation including limits on concept ownership through Patent Law, prevention of monopolistic business practices through Anti-Trust Legislation, and the outlaw of price cutting and gouging.
[edit] The Right to Be Heard
This right asserts the ability of consumers to voice complaints and concerns about a product in order to have the issue handled efficiently and responsively. While no federal agency is tasked with the specific duty of providing a forum for this interaction between consumer and producer, certain outlets exist to aid consumers if difficulty occurs in communication with an aggrieving party. State and federal Attorney Generals are equipped to aid their constituents in dealing with parties who have provided a product or service in a manner unsatisfactory to the consumer in violation of an applicable law. Also, the Better Business Bureau is a national non-governmental organization whose sole agenda is to provide political lobbies and action on behalf of aggrieved consumers.
[edit] The Right to Be Informed
This right states that businesses should always provide consumers with enough appropriate information to make intelligent and informed product choices. Product information provided by a business should always be complete and truthful. Aiming to achieve protection against misleading information in the areas of financing, advertising, labeling, and packaging, the right to be informed is protected by several pieces of legislation passed between 1960 and 1980.
[edit] The Right to Education
To have access to programs and information that help consumers make better marketplace decisions.
[edit] The Right to Service
To convenience, to be treated with courtesy and respect, to responsiveness to needs and problems and to refuse any services offered.
[edit] Advertising
The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (1975) requires that a producer provide a warranty stating the standards of performance that the product will be held responsible to meet, and allows that warranty to be either stated explicitly or implied. With respect to advertising standards and consumer interaction with commercial producers, over forty US states have enacted “cooling-off” legislation that permits consumers to change their minds about the purchase of a product when dealing directly with a salesperson.
[edit] Financing
Before the passage of legislation providing protection against such injustices, the actual costs associated with loans were often hidden and near impossible for the avera
