include also a part of business. How do they make their choice for one rather another is known only by them. All of us are living with consumerism. Each day, we have to make choices for a trademark or another, for a product or another. We have criterias to decide and hopefully are we interested to know if those products we are using are made in the best conditions for workers, good for health, etc. I imagine SP have also those kinds of criterias even if we don't know them.

Nevertheless, reading the comments of ladybeans and karaoke and I wonder, all the same, Ford is really important not only for Americans but for the world. With his Ford T and the assembly line, he was a precursor and changed totally the capacity of production AND following our lifestyle. Curious, I went to read what wikipedia said about him and discovered different astonishing things.

I didn't knew he built a race car called "999"!!! And this:

"Ford had a global vision, with consumerism as the key to peace" Nothing less!!

Interesting to read, specially for Americans.
