I don't follow. He paid them extra so they could pay him for a car and other rich people for stuff so the rich could continue too be rich? I think if you do the math that's not going to work. My guess is Ford paid them a good amount so he could attract good workers so he would get a good quality car. Because that's how labor supply and demand works. It doesn't rely on the altruistic motives of the employer.
