  1. From Gearoid Reidy: Fumio Kishida sought to dispel a tax-raising image, and a derisive nickname, with a one-time tax rebate. That’s fallen flat, and the prime minister is floundering.

  2. Instead of 200 dollars a year, how about you stop sitting and scratching you ass all day and get to fixing inflation and companies’ refusal to hike wages

  3. Why does this keep happening here? Even before tax hike wanker I swear it happened. They keep throwing cash at us haha.

    There’s an announcement of a relief package for COVID, cost of living whatever then months later you just get a small cash payment. How does this help at all? Wages need to go up, things need to be fixed from the inside. Stop throwing money at people. It’s a pain in the ass to apply and wait for it then what you pay some bills or a bit of debt then you’re poor again.

  4. I’m afraid things won’t change until we start seeing starvation on the streets. Sometimes I think Japanese people are too resistant to adversities for our own good. Sure it keeps everything working like clockwork but for FS at least vote and make things a little less comfortable for the LDP
