Japans fiskalische Gesundheit ist unter den fortgeschrittenen Volkswirtschaften am schlimmsten.
Der 64 -jährige Takaichi, der darauf abzielt, Japans erste Premierministerin zu werden, sagte eine gemeinsame Pressekonferenz. "Wenn es nicht geholfen werden kann, werden wir denke, wir müssen staatliche Anleihen ausgeben."

I agree that just relaying to rising tax is probably not the answer but can’t say it’s a good idea to issue more bonds either.
Don’t know why they keep increasing number of ministries. They’re essentially rising salaries of new people in those new ministries. They should be decreasing the number instead of increasing them.
Why do they keep thinking they can just rise taxes to do something that actually doesn’t offer value in return. They should realize that it’s not about doing but getting results. In the case of the government, the result if better conditions for the residents whether they are Japanese or foreigners as long as they are living in Japan.
The Japanese Liz Truss, arguably even worse though
Roosevelt’s „New Deal“ initiative seems to have helped US economy during the great depression. Full employment, however, was only reached when US entered WWII. Just hope Japan won’t follow that path.
Furthermore, the conditions during the great depression is different from the current economic condition in Japan so strictly following initiatives in New Deal probably won’t help the current economy or even make it worse. However, rising tax for all residents probably isn’t a great idea with so many residents already having problem with living expense.
