At the time, I'm sure Ford's ideas were considered very progressive and a gift to the indigenous people.

Today, he's the target of a critical article like this one. (There's more criticism of Winston Churchill on HN today, too.)

My theory is that the world has become so prosperous (at least parts of it) that people have no idea what's good and what's not any more.

Perhaps if you were, say, Indian, you'd feel less favorably disposed to Churchill, even if you did not live a life of opulence. You don't have to agree with someone else's perspective to be able to understand it.

Progressive is one way to put it. That and gift are not my words of choice.
