I'll do my best to post frequently, so I hope you'll check it out! Thank you! --- High ratings and hype are encouraging! Please feel free to leave comments! This video is about… An economic commentary by Mr. Kamiya, representative of the Sanseito party, and an explanation of the reduction of the consumption tax on food products by Representative Ando Yu. In Japan, where economic growth is stagnant and the birthrate is declining, the consumption tax problem is pointed out as the root cause of the structure in which the money of ordinary people is siphoned off by a select few. Even if food products are taxed at 0%, prices will not fall according to the tax rate, and restaurants will actually face an increased tax burden. The amount of unpaid consumption tax in 2024 reached 529.8 billion yen. Can the consumption tax really be called a "stable and good tax" for the people? Please share your thoughts in the comments section.

Consumption tax and social insurance contributions are typical examples. ◆Social Insurance Contributions: Insurance premiums paid monthly by workers and companies to cover the costs of health insurance, pensions, and long-term care insurance. In the video, it is criticized alongside consumption tax as an "excessively high stable revenue source." ◆Export Tax Refunds (Export Reimbursements): A system that allows exporting companies to avoid paying consumption tax, or to receive a refund for the consumption tax incurred on their purchases. The video points out that large corporations receive refunds of 9-10 trillion yen annually. ◆Amakudari (Revolving Door Positions): The practice of bureaucrats taking jobs in large corporations or related organizations within their former industries after retirement. The video criticizes Ministry of Finance officials for being unable to move towards abolishing the consumption tax due to concerns about employment opportunities in large corporations. ◆Food Consumption Tax Reduction (Zero-Rate Reduction): A policy proposal to reduce the consumption tax on food products to 0% or 1%. The video explains that because prices are determined by supply and demand, the effect of price increases on consumers is limited. ◆ Input Tax Credit: This system allows businesses to deduct the consumption tax paid on purchases from the consumption tax paid on sales. If food items become tax-exempt (0%), restaurants will no longer be able to use the deduction for ingredient purchases, resulting in a de facto tax increase. ◆ Eat-in/Takeout (Applicable Reduced Tax Rates): Under the current system, in-store dining (eat-in) is subject to a 10% consumption tax, while take-out food items are subject to an 8% tax. If food items become 0%, the difference will widen to 10%, raising concerns about a decrease in customers at restaurants. ◆ Primary Balance (Basic Fiscal Balance): This indicator shows whether government expenditures, excluding the cost of repaying government bonds, can be covered by revenues that do not rely on issuing government bonds. While used as a benchmark for fiscal soundness, the video criticizes it as hindering expansionary fiscal policy. ◆ Expansionary Fiscal Policy: An economic policy in which the government actively increases spending through measures such as issuing government bonds, thereby increasing the amount of money circulating in the market. In the video, it is presented as a means of economic recovery, alongside the abolition of consumption tax. ◆ Government Bonds (International): Bonds issued by the government to raise funds. While the video argues that these should be used as a source of revenue, it also presents the counterargument that "market creditors will not accept this." *Although pronounced "international" in the video, it refers...
