More Corrupt Nominees to Biden Administration
#1
Quote:President Joe Biden's nominee for a top Justice Department post is a longtime advocate for raising the minimum wage to $15, but she owns up to $1 million in stock in a company chaired by her father that pays its Mexican workforce as little as $1.30 an hour.

I swear, I haven't found one person in Joe's administration that isn't a crook or a habitual liar. Are these the people we want in charge of making our laws and carrying out justice?


Quote:Vanita Gupta—whose net worth of between $42 and $187 million makes her the Biden administration's wealthiest nominee—owns at least $500,000 in Aptiv PLC, an international auto parts manufacturer chaired by her father. In contrast with Gupta's advocacy for a $15 an hour minimum wage, the company pays some of its Mexican employees hourly rates as low as $1.30, according to active job listings reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. One job posted on Indeed.com, for example, offers a line operator role at a Zacatecas plant that pays the U.S. dollar equivalent of $260 a month for a 50-hour per week job.


In her nonprofit work and her personal social media, Gupta has repeatedly expressed support for both the $15 per hour minimum wage and a so-called livable wage.

Gupta's investments have come under increased scrutiny as her confirmation goes down to the wire. A new ad by the Judicial Crisis Network, which is pushing Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W. Va.) to reconsider his support for Gupta, takes aim at her stake worth tens of millions of dollars in Avantor, a separate company tied to Mexico's heroin production. The Free Beacon reported last month that Gupta was attempting to sidestep the ethical minefield created by her father's wide array of corporate interests.

In her role as president and CEO of The Education Fund, Gupta made a moral case for raising the minimum wage. In a 2018 press release, Gupta said that "a living wage is not a privilege, it is a civil and human right for all." Her case for raising wages was unequivocal: "Raising wages is a moral question: do we value the people who are the engine of our economy or not? The answer must be yes."
Aptiv's business practices appear to fail Gupta's own test of valuing people who are the engines of economies.

Other positions currently advertised by the company include a full-time general operator job that pays $290 a month and a production line operator position that pays $274 a month.

Gupta's personal financial disclosure forms list between $500,001 and $1 million in Aptiv stock, and she has taken profits in recent years as well. The forms show that Gupta received between $5,000 and $15,000 in dividends from Aptiv last year.

The Biden administration did not respond to a request for comment on the investment. Aptiv also did not respond to inquiries.

While $15/hr sounds great, this would shut down small businesses who can't afford to pay that much. That would leave only the big corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and other large corporations who walk the line of the globalists agenda to stay in operation. 
Maybe that's the real goal behind all this?
