Not at all. Ford turned people away because he had too many applicants for the assembly line. They came in droves because he offered $1 an hour more than anyone else did. They came to Detroit on their own, building it into a major industrial city. Sorry, as a 32 year Detroiter with Ford workers in the family, could not let that one slide...
