Something Kishida keeps bringing up is that he wants to crack down on permanent residents who don’t pay taxes.
How many foreigners could there possibly be who went through the permanent residency process and then stopped paying their dues to society?
I’d assume that most people who get permanent residency are pretty up-standing citizens. Also since your employer handles insurance, pension and income tax for you unless you just work part time it would require a substantial effort to not pay taxes. The only thing that’s reasonably avoidable is city tax.
So how many foreigners are there who have PR but don’t pay taxes? It can’t be so many, right?
