Central Alberta | The Model T is a symbol of victory for the average citizen over the big oligopolies that Ford hated so much. He was a farmer and a tinkerer who wanted the common people to share in the fruits of technology and innovation. All the forces of industry and banking tried to shut him down, but his genius defeated them all.
By the early 1920s, he was the richest man in the country, and he had personal goals bent on making things right in the world. That's when he began to run afoul of society in general, and retreated into his own self-centered, paranoid world, He bullied his workers with a gang of thugs, and became a bit of a bitter recluse, being forced out of the way shortly before his death. | |
