Frankly, I think Henry would have killed HFII, would have LOVED Iacocca, and then killed Billy's predecessor as well as Billy.
Ford understood that "preservation of the Company" is much easier to do if the Company's employees can afford to buy his products. On the larger scale, it will be helpful if average citizens in the USA can buy FoMoCo product--evidently Billy thinks so, regardless of whether they are employed.

Billy is not moving all the Ford plants overseas. Domestic auto manufacturing is at an all-time high if you include the number of new plants in the US. Auto industry is a good example of expansion to fill demand in other nations.
