Default OT slightly History of the automobile industry

Most of you here have some interest in the cars we drive. This is Car
Week on the History Channel. The Cars That Made America is a multi part
series about the automobile industry. If you missed it, Saturday night
you can catch up. It is hours so set it to record

Henry Ford went belly up a couple of time. He would be nothing without
the Dodge Brothers. Buick would be out of business if it was not saved
by Walter P Chrysler.

If you know anything about the auto industry, you probably know tow
things. Henry Ford was the genius that set the foundations of
production/ Henry was also a prick.

Prick doesn't get close to describing him.

He certainly wouldn't have been in court because of the Dodge Brothers.
There are several ways to spin that case; one is a clear cut statement
that a company has no other mandate than maximizing profits for the
shareholders.
