Henry Ford deserves a monument in Washington D.C. because Ford is considered one of America's leading businessmen, he is credited today for helping to build America's economy during the nation's vulnerable early years. Henry Ford made the first Ford vehicle in 1896, so that we could drive longer distances, rather than making a horse have to pull a buggy for long distances. After a few trials building cars and companies, in 1903, Henry Ford established the Ford Motor Company. Ford introduced the Model T in October of 1908, and for several years, the company posted 100 percent gains. In 1914, he sponsored the development of the moving assembly line technique of mass production, which revolutionized the industry. As a result, Ford sold millions of cars and became a world-famous company head. The company lost its market dominance but had a lasting impact on other technological development and U.S. infrastructure. The Henry Ford monument should go close to the Washington Monument.
