Every day you reveal another major hole in your body of knowledge by insisting that what you want to be true, MUST be.
This is pernicious ignorance. Dunning-Kruger. Stable ignorance that is self maintaining.
The essential raw material for conservatism.
What "hole" is that, PMS? Are you claiming my math is wrong? Are you claiming each worker purchased 200 Model 'T's? You keep claiming my facts are wrong, but you never provide the slightest bit of evidence to support your claims. I realize it smarts to have your most cherished notions explode before your very eyes, but facts are facts.
How many years, numbnuts, was the Model T sold? What happened to the old ones when new ones replaced them? What was the impact of the Ford payroll on the rest of the economy? How many employees benefited over the years?
One thing is clear. If you were Henry, Ford would be an unknown name today.
IF an employee bought a new one every year it would have to have been sold for 40 years for the employees to buy the entire stock. The Model 'T' was sold from 1908 to 1926. A its peak of production in 1925 Ford sold 2 million Model 'T's. How many of those do you suppose his work force purchased?
Face it, your story is a fairy tale. It's not true. The impact of the Ford payroll on the economy is irrelevant. The only question here is whether Ford could make a profit by paying his workers enough to buy all his cars. That claim is clearly false. It's a union myth used to justify their extortionist wage demands.
