Default China : Foxconn (Makes Apples Phones) 60,000 workers Fired due to Robots
60,000 China Workers Fired
now replaced by Hi Tech Robots.


That is a great deal of workers


Foxconn also make Samsung phones


Ref : BBC Business news

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-36376966


I know thats a massive amount of workers
but I am still Pro Robot.
I mean none of these Robots will jump off the roof.



Sorry lady
