Ford Motor Company?

Indeed it is.

Firestone tires.

Exploding vehicle gas tanks.

The Edsel.

Shining. Right!


Is it Ford or private industry, you don't like?


Poor assumption. Point was the tarnish on your "shining" example.
Surely, you can find a better example.

Almost anything will tarnish if you throw enough acid on it.
Why should I look for a better example. Ford is a pretty good example of
what private industry is capable of even with government meddling and
interference. Building a plane an hour is a pretty amazing feat, dontcha
think?
