For more on Henry Ford, check out post #67 in this thread -- I think it illustrates some very crucial points that need to be considered whenever this subject is discussed.

You make a lot of handwaving that someone (e.g. in this case Ford's suppliers) has to get involuntarily shafted. But no proofs, only handwaving. There was a time not long ago when pretty much everyone down that food chain could afford a Ford. Not at the rate that Ford churned them out, of course, but could reasonably save up enough in a year or so to buy one.
