What a marvellous mess

Sep 16 '11
“Henry Ford used to pay his workers five dollars a day [highest in the world at that time], that was an ounce and a quarter of gold, which at today’s exchange rate, is $2,500 a week. So Ford’s workers were making $2,500 a week, they were paying no federal income taxes and no payroll taxes, there was no minimum wage and there were no unions. We paid the highest wages in the world, yet we produced the highest quality, least expensive products. How is that possible? It’s possible because we had the smallest government.”
