Why on earth would you be upset over that video? Enough to make you possibly not buy another one from them? I see nothing but smart, innovative business ideas. If you're upset they've moved their plant to Brazil, I'd like to know why? It isn't profitable for them to build that type of operation in the good old USA anymore.
I watched that whole video and don't understand why it makes you like Ford less. It's groundbreaking efficiency and innovation, integrated processes... They state they'd love to use it as a template for the future of assembly right here in the U.S. if the unions would allow it.

They didn't have a problem taking the tax breaks afforded them when they built that plant where they could hire the cheapest labor in the world.

How is that any different from every major company? You know how many products you buy from China and Taiwan? How many auto factories from all different countries are in South America, Latin America, Mexico, or China?
They're being pushed out by the unions. Blame them for demanding salaries on par with college degreed professionals for line work, not Ford.
