Spear, who has apprenticed in Toyota factories, says the problem was that the "Toyota way" - in which knowledge accumulated by élite cadres...

The music is forceful and angry as an electric guitar pounds out a progression identical to that found on the punk-metal band System of a Down’s 2001 hit single, “Chop Suey,” and Wayne’s slow, aggressive, auto-tuned drawl recalls Marilyn Manson. On top of this, Wayne tells an unbearably trite story about high school in disappointingly simplistic language. Explaining how his feelings for the prom queen were never returned, Wayne whines, “She didn’t realize she chased the type of guys...
