If people really love Toyotas should the government give Toyota money?

The government has given businesses money to stop them from going out of business when it is in the interest of the people. So many times.

And same should happen here: money in exchange for corporate equity. Probably should be sold at a discount when it’s public money to reduce tomfoolery.
