I sincerely doubt it is just "this foreign company". US companies also would be motivated to further automation in their operations. It's cheaper, doesn't need lunch breaks, or vacations, and can work 24/7. It is -unfortunately for a lot people- inevitable.

I'm reminded of either the convict or Pence -don't remember which- making a big show of giving a grant to keep an air conditioning manufacturer -IIRC- from closing a plant down. It used the money to install automation, and fired most of the workers because they were no longer needed. Jobs lost either way.
