>That’s not entirely accurate, see Henry Ford suspending shareholder dividends, raising employee wages and lowering price of cars for consumers to fulfill vision of every American family owning a (Ford) car.

It wasn't to fulfill any kind of dream or vision. Ford didn't like his shareholders, quality was getting hammered by high turnover and he had a weird paternalistic desire to exert more control over his employees (as well as to head off the looming strike threat).
