Ford practically invented the modern runway assembly system which is terrible for the workers. Its repetitive nature is inhumane and damaging to the worker. It also reduces the worker to a robot. Before ford people could say "I build cars", after ford people could only say "I put the left door panel on cars". I dont know ford personally so I wont comment on his character, but I will say that he set forth an assembly line system that devalues the working man.

Sorry to break your balls but I just read an article on the philosophy of the modern factory so I felt I had to point this out.
