Regina Spektor - "Eet" [Official Music Video]
The following is a rough draft.
Politics and petitions are more than an inherent part of a democratic society; they are essential.
There is no developed country in the world where lobbying is not practiced.
In the United States, there is even an established profession of lobbyists.
I have had my Twitter account hijacked at least three times by the scoundrel I mentioned in the previous chapter.
I had to cancel my membership to Facebook because of the repeated attacks of the man who created countless IDs to send me pornographic videos.
Shortly after it appeared in July 2010, it received a fierce follow-up from all over the world before it suffered such ill-treatment.
At one point, I even received an email from a powerful lobbyist in the United States asking 'if there was anything I could do to help.'
In Japan, it is customary for most people to bring a souvenir when asking for something from others.
Since I have been working from morning to night since the founding of empty pockets, I was a rare person who was not familiar with such a custom.
For some reason, the tax office disallowed what the CPA at the time of founding had recorded as inventory.
When I founded the company, I accomplished so much work that it was unheard of.
I was constantly bombarded with requests from customers to sell and buy their real estate holdings.
So, even though I worked from morning till night, I was still without cash.
It used almost all of the money I earned to pay the deposit for the contracts I signed in response to customers' purchase requests.
The truth of the matter, which was denied by the tax papers, was as follows.
As a result of me working so furiously, it was as if our company accounted for 90% of the mediation of the sale of prime real estate in the area where we had our store.
It seems that a competitor who was jealous of this tipped off the tax office about the mixture of fact and fiction.
In their terminology, it is said to be called "tipping off.
In the first year of the company's establishment, I sold his residence for a short period at the asking price. As a result, I hired a young CPA with a beautiful personality, part of Takenaka Corporation's tax accountants team, as my advisor for a monthly fee.
It rejected the first financial statement he prepared, and he was sentenced to pay over 100 million yen.
The money lay as a deposit when he signed a contract to buy the very inventory assets. At that time, banks did not provide loans for this kind of money.
Right from the first year, the company faced a crisis of survival due to overwork.
It was the first time I heard the term "black bankruptcy.
By chance, one of the employees was close to the first secretary of a leading representative of the Liberal Democratic Party.
So I went to Tokyo to make a petition.
After returning to the office, I went to the meeting empty-handed to the people around me's dismay.
In the end, I decided to hire a CPA on a two-story structure with one of the leading CPAs in Japan.
In the end, I paid a lot of money and settled with the tax office.
In the U.S., this is legalized as a donation.
I had no idea what it was like in Japan.
In Japan, almost anything equivalent to a donation in the U.S. is probably subject to bribery and corruption.
In the U.S., it is common knowledge that everything is determined by how much or how little money is donated.
It may take the form of buying party tickets or joining a supporters' association and paying a membership fee in Japan.
One more thing made me amazed by the people around me as a matter of common sense.
I don't know about now, but in the past, it was common practice for family and relatives to give a small amount of gratuity to the doctor in charge when a hospitalized patient underwent surgery.
That was common sense, and I was accused of being insane for not knowing such a thing.
Ever since then, I despised doctors a little until I was hospitalized in 2011 with a life-threatening illness.
Nurses are more critical than doctors.
Nurses are the ones who do the noblest work.
The people around me must have heard me say that several times.
This chapter was inspired by the previous one.
I thought that if the prosecutor is a true nationalist, a first-rate Japanese official, he should have said something like the following in response to the politicians' bribery cases that have been exposed here and there.
It is just a simple bribery case between a private company and a politician, and the amount of money is not much.
It is not bribery of astronomical amounts of money by bureaucrats and politicians like in some other countries.
Nor is this a case of politicians pocketing trillions or trillions of yen in national wealth and taking it overseas, as is the case in some other countries.
The problem arises from the ambiguity of how to handle the money brought by the petitioners.
Politicians should make it a law that all money brought by petitioners should be treated as donations.
The petitioner decides how much or how little to donate, depending on the case.
Politicians should also make it clear, as in the U.S., that the amount of donation should be determined by the content of the petition.
It is the only way to prevent unnecessary suspicion from being cast on national politics.
It occurred to me that a prosecutor can make such a statement to the mass media considering the nation would be a real elite.
Then again, former Prime Minister Abe is one of the few genuine and absolute statesmen who can be elected without campaigning.
However, he is the opposite of Kiyomi Tsujimoto, who defrauded the people of considerable tax money.
Yet, the people in Prime Minister Abe's office would live by their sense of duty and humanity. It is why Asahi, NHK, and other mass media outlets have been reporting so much that he made up for the shortage of membership fees.
Moreover, the amount of money was so small that the secretary (retainer) must have made up the 8 million yen or so, which he was too embarrassed to mention to the Chinese, out of gratitude, a very Japanese feeling.
It is the complete opposite of the case of Kiyomi Tsujimoto, who was arrested for defrauding the Japanese people of tens of millions of yen over several years.
What's more, a great statesman who has done so much for Japan and the world.
He was asked to resign from the Diet by Kiyomi Tsujimoto, a politician who has defrauded the people of a large amount of taxpayer money and calls herself the Constitutional Democratic Party's vice-president.
The fact that the mass media is gleefully reporting this is beyond stupid, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is an example of democracy degenerating into ochlocracy.
If we lived in a country where prosecutors speak out as real elites and nationalists, made statements like the above, the foolishness of the mass media's gleeful coverage would disappear.
That would be the duty of the elite to correct the country.
But the reality is just the opposite.
The lawyer mentioned above, a former prosecutor, is probably criticizing the prosecutors from the bottom of his heart.
