Because without Henry Ford, they would have figured out how to make their labor worth that much on their own.

... so you're saying theft is justified if it leads to the greatest good for the greatest number? (assuming they couldn't figure out how to build a factory on their own).

Uh... no. You really need to stop being so deliberately obtuse or get some reading comprehension classes. If I pay someone to work in my factory, and they choose to, it cannot be theft. My worker takes on none of the risk I take on when building a factory. If I make money or lose money, he BENEFITS.
