eight shorts years later, henry ford would take the horses out of horsepower and put 12 of them in alock of iron under his new model t. ford brought his automobile into the masses. by putting people on the road in his tim lizzies he was putting the car before the road sort to speak. in 1900 there were only 144 miles of concrete paveed roads in the whole country. so almost all of america's automotive journeys were by necessity an adventure of the back road variety. in california one of the most challenging of those adventures came here to to yosemite. to the valleys of granite domes. everywhere americans drove their model t was a challenge. a test of their reborn spirit of independence. >> coming to yosemite was the same kind of adventure. you would have blow outs, you would have engine problems. one of the great things about these cars was that they were easily if i easily fixed. >> reporter: these were the dusty days. most people were born and died of 50 miles of their place of birth. these times were changing quickly. by 1913 the same year cars were allowed to enter yosemite valley

a well-known builder in the area, an admirer of henry ford, the idea of getting this down, having an assembly line, build this in quick-style. this is a 1932 -- i think he built this house. he was a pragmatic businessman. this has spanish colonial revival elements. a few years later, it is streamlined. modern. stylo-crat. it is better than being aristocratic. to sell them, he had to come up with clever names like that. like lafayette. he went with the popular taste. when the modern architecture started coming in, he was happy because it was less work. >> very little detail. you see detail in brought the city. people took tract homes and tried to individualize them in various ways throughout the cities. here is an example of how they might have done that. >> they had a lot of medallions and reliefs. >> the working class would go out to go swimming in the ocean. the wealthy would stay downtown like in the marines memorial or the elk and they would have heated saltwater. people wanted to swim in salt water. >> how did the water get there? >> there was a pipe that allowed it to flow all

sued henry ford because he was seen as workers five dollars a day and dodgers only paid a dollar a day he said that's wrong you can't pay them all that money and the quit the supreme court ruled that as long as what a corporation's officers are doing increases the value of a corporation for its stockholders it's legal in other words corporations by law have to be selfish so it makes sense that corporate leaders would embrace the i am brand philosophy and say christianity stuff screw that but in matthew twenty five which is to my recollection i've only read the bible four times but the only time when the disciples actually sat down jesus is that how do we get into heaven exactly said here's the list feed the hungry you know clothe clothe the naked do the modern equivalent if you know how is the homeless. and heal the sick visit those unjustly in prison and they all freaked out because they'd never they said we've never seen you hungry we've never seen you thirsty actually didn't say feed the hungry isn't when you fed me when i was on your day when you healed me when i was sick that and

choice but to spin because cost of gone up you actually get a fictive inflation that once didn't henry ford figure that out he raised the wages of his workers so they could buy the car yeah yeah and again like the result though a large part of the new deal was given decent wages to work as so when you cut the wages it looks like a sensible that is the whole inability to think in the feedback sense that the actual economy operates in. if you cut wages you will they will have a deflationary impact on the economy when it's already in a day fleishman so by driving the process level down you increase the value in norman in real terms of the outstanding debt making across this worse what you have to do is reduce the value of that bit on the easiest way is to reverse the trend of the last forty years which is being trained for falling wages both in real in terms of the proportion of g.d.p. so you cause of that you put the wages up not to actually get a much larger share of g.d.p. because you expect the inflation to come along and eroded but by roading the inflation eroding the value of the dead yo

of the last century, around 1900 most automobiles were electric but they were not efficient so henry fordejected ethanol and electric. we could come up with something better. let consumers decide. do not shove it down their threat in the follow of gas taxes. >>neil: thank you very much. jerry, thank you very much. and mark levine was following the marc anthony soap soap opera, who do you think got him upset? host: could switching to geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance? host: is the pen mightier than the sword? ninja 2: ow vo: geico. 15 minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance. >>neil: weiner exposes his dirty laundry and now pelosi is referring him to the ethics committee. and our legal expert says we have seen that show before. what do you envision happening now? >>reporter: the ethics committee will look into whether using government resources while texting the lewd pictures and chatting with the girl. one came forward and said he was on the phone so they will look and see. did he violate the code of conduct? was he using resources? i think they will push him o

middle class and was built on the notion -- henry ford doubled his wages in his factory because he wantedoney to buy his products. >> hthey kept the middle class going and they sold their product to the middle class. >> there is a shift going on right now because the americans have decided that the u.s. middle class is no longer its base. it's the middle class in the emerging market and rich people in the united states. that is a sea change and it is having political consequences that i don't think we're talking about enough. >> which is why i'm working on a book called capitalism is not patriotic. chrys tirks a is totally right and these companies are doing all the right things so they compete in the world market, but thi don't need to be selling their products to anyone else but americans. it's important they can sell them somewhere else besides america. >>> the government says there's no evidence that cell phones cause cancer. the companies say be careful. and my next guess says there's reason for concern and she can prove it. top speed of 100 miles an hour. that's one serious machine.

middle class and was built on the notion, henry ford doubled the wages in his factories because he wantedhe workers to have the money to buy his products. >> they kept the middle class going and they sold their product to the middle class. >> and there's a really important shift happening right now, which is american business has decided, rightly, i think, in terms of the numbers, that the u.s. middle class is no longer its base. it's the middle class and the emerging markets and rich people in the united states. that is a sea change and it is having political consequences that i don't think we're talking about enough. >> which is why i'm working on a book called "capitalism is not patriotic." chrystia is right. all these companies are doing all the right things so that they compete in the world market. they don't need to be selling their products whether it's automobile manufacturers or anybody else to americans. >> somebody can buy them. pete, good to see you. thanks, chrystia and christine. >>> do cell phones cause kanser? the government says there's no evidence. the fine print on cell

it was associated with henry ford and how he liked to say bunk to mean "nonsense." well, w.a. woodward and rupert hughes said, well, they looked at troops being deloused in world war i, and they said if troops can be deloused, washington can be debunked. [laughter] that's where the word "debunk" comes from. that's where it started. and they department just try to destroy -- didn't just try to destroy the washington myth, they tore washington down to the gutter. they claimed that he was a gin-swilling, cigar-smoking champion curser who had deformed hands and was incredibly ugly. he looked like an ape, and he pawed at any woman who came his way, and they were always jilting him. that he blundered his way through the revolutionary war. all of this stuff got completely out of, out of control, and the reaction was washington was torn down so far and they were so successful in tearing him down that americans lost interest. even after the 1932 bicentennial of washington's birth it was, you know, a gala affair. people talked about washington a lot, but it was always as a flat, two-dim

and henry ford said, walter, some day this will all be machines and their travel must be no workers.alter said, and who will buy -- and there will almost be no workers. and walter said, and who will buy your automobiles? in the last few years, there are fewer people buying cars. used cars are being bought more than new cars. and with the price of gas, people are not traveling as much. we do not have a blue-collar middle class. we no longer have a demand for products and goods that we used to have when we had a much greater of middle-class. host: mike in illinois. if caller: i believe in unions -- caller: i believe in unions. if you do not like it, your employer -- otherwise, if you do not like it, your employer who hires you and hire someone else. -- your employer fires you and hires someone else. with the unions, you have vengeance, most of them have 41 k's, and health care -- you have pensions, most of them have 401 k's, and health care. guest: there are some good unions and the audience. i believe in checks and balances. i happen to be eastern european. my mother came from eastern

let's turn things over to henry woe ford who is joining us live from comcast sports desk. night for baseball. the battle of the bay hit the coliseum tonight n. the first, the giants had the upper hand. could oakland get revenge against their crosstown rivals? this is game one of the three-game series and things got heated early. top of the 2nd, giants one 1-0. cody ross sends it over the fence. we are tied at one. one on and one out, willing ham makes contact. that gets down the line. here's a little controversy. giants said, wait a minute, that should be a ground roll double. got stuck near the chair but said no way. matsui taps home plate a little later. in the 8th, scott sizemore doubles to right center. 4-2 oakland at that point. they get the win 5-2 is the final. jamie sire has the full report. >> despite the outcome, bruce said for the most part he thought that timlin had come through well. he said he felt better than the last few starts but still not where he wants to be. >> can't gauge what you did last. you have to battle. and once again i failed to do it, had a c

pioneered the way 300 years ago with the model t and up until then, the cars were for rich, but then henry forddidn't create, but it perfected the mechanization, which transformed the industrial revolution. things went downhill with the stiff competition from gm and chrysler in the 1920s. by world war ii, president franklin roosevelt referred to the auto industry in detroit as the arsenal of democracy. ford motor is credited with a pivotal effort in the war by churning out warplanes and military cars as fast as one an hour. another key point came after the war. ford created a post-war classic, the '49 ford. that move marked a new era for the company, and put it back on the map. by 1957, ford becomes the top-selling brand producing 1.68 million cars. its sales reach an all-time high 15 years later. after introducing a wave of new cars in the 1970s, '80s and '90s sales slowed down to the point in 2006, ford is forced to undergo major restructuring, and they mortgage all of the assets to raise $23.4 billion in credit to finance part of the operations. it reaches a low point the next year when ford

foreign service and state department, becoming a top aide to henry kissinger during the nixon and ford administration. he was ambassador to yugoslavia for jimmy carter and served as secretary of state during the george h.w. bush administration. the cause of death was pneumonia. he was 80 years old. in this week's youtube address, president obama discusses the state of the u.s. auto industry and its relation to the rest of the economy, including unemployment and the federal deficit. republican senator lamar alexander of tennessee delivers the republican response. talks about the role of unions, including auto industry, and praises the policies of so- called right to work states. this is 10 minutes. >> hello, everyone. i'm speaking to you today from a chrysler plant in toledo, ohio, where i just met with workers, including jill. jill was born and raised here. her mother and step-father retired from this plant. and she met her husband here, and now they have two children of their own. this plant has not only been central to the economy of this town. it's been a part of the lifeblood of th

people, the world as their countries develop i talk about china, but eventually they will have their henry fordent. he says he pays his workers and makes products affordable so they can actually buy their own product. china is huge savers and eventually they will become huge spenders. so i don't fear free trade at all. we have to have fair trade. no doubt about it. we have to look at all those things on a case-by-case basis, but we need to embrace the fact that we are part of a global economy. let's embrace that and compete effectively. host: a tweet writing if it's the private sector that drives jobs, why sit that you're casting the president for not creating jobs? >> i'm cast gating the president for not leading this nation. right now our total debt is almost the same size of our economy, and there are all kinds of noted economic studies that say when you're at that level, you're in a dangerous place as far as how they can proceed, so all the danger signals are there. we can go look at what's happening in greece. we're facing a potential debt crisis. what does that mean? what is that going to

that was a real dilemma because years ago, henry ford was walking through and out of plant with the head of the uaw. andenry ford said, walter, some day this will all be machines and their travel must be no workers. and walter said, and who will buy -- and there will almost be no workers. and walter said, and who will buy your automobiles? in the last few years, there are fewer people buying cars. used cars are being bought more than new cars. and with the price of gas, people are not traveling as much. we do not have a blue-collar middle class. we no longer have a demand for products and goods that we used to have when we had a much greater of middle-class. host: mike in illinois. if caller: i believe in unions -- caller: i believe in unions. if you do not like it, your employer -- otherwise, if you do not like it, your employer who hires you and hire someone else. -- your employer fires you and hires someone else. with the unions, you have vengeance, most of them have 41 k's, and health care -- you have pensions, most of them have 401 k's, and health care. guest: there are some good un

i started my residency at henry ford hospital in detroit. i received a draft notice.f i volunteered. i always kid and and say i immediately volunteered. i've got to practice medicine. became a flight surgeon. stay in longer than i had thought. my obligation was two years. with reserve duty, i stayed five years. i finished my medical training at the university of pittsburgh. my wife liked the warmer climates. we moved a medical practice to texas. >> why did you study to become a doctor? >> for many years, i wanted to be, but would not admit it. you do not want to fail. of wanted to make sure i could do it. i just had respect for physicians. i thought it was really wonderful that you could do something wonderful such as delivering babies. it was wonderful, along with surgery. the whole thing is, there is one other element. i am old enough to remember the second world war and korea. one of my teachers had to go over there and was killed. war has a big impact on me. i figured i would probably get drafted some day. i would much rather care for people and be in the medical

today a massive bureaucratic machine produces job-killing regulations at a speed that would make henry ford shoulder. every year unelected bureaucrat it's issue more than 3,000 final rules, close to 10 rules a day. thank you, mr. chairman, i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentleman from texas rise? >> to address the house for one minute, revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman from texas is recognized for one minute. mr. green: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, in these times of great difficulty and uncertainty , our senior citizens want to know where we stand. and i want the senior citizens to know that i stand with them. oy will not vote to voucherize medicare, and i will not vote to socialize to the extent that we privatize social security. medicare has been there for millions of our senior citizens. it is a program on which they can depend. in their minds medicare is better care. we have 40 million seniors depending on medicare. we cannot take that
