right. Ford did it because he was simply an altruistic dude. read the Forbes article and educate yourself. so not only are you mental midget, you can't even remember that in the original post i said he didn't do it out of the kindness of his heart. you just keep digging your hole deeper and deeper don't you? it really is comical. ==== henry ford is a good example. he gave his workers much higher pay and a shorter work week at least 2 decades before the unions came along. he didn't do it out of the kindness of his heart. he did it out of ambition (some people call it 'greed', i don't). he was losing his trained workers and he had to pay them better and treat them better in order to keep them. it was only free market capitalism that improved workers pay and working conditions.
