On the 16th, the Kansai Economic Federation published recommendations regarding the medium- to long-term structure of tax and finances. They called for the suspension or reduction of basic old-age pensions (national pensions) for elderly people who have a large amount of income other than pensions. At a press conference, Vice Chairman Hitoshi Tsunekage (special advisor to Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank) pointed out that “it will be difficult to maintain the current social security system, and some painful reforms are necessary.” Continued from Kyodo News on October 16, 2024 at 5:29 pm.
>>1 What Japan needs is to put people who can work but won’t work to work. What is needed to achieve this is to cut welfare payments, raise the pension eligibility age, and reduce pension payments for those under 80 (who are still able to work). Even if we place restrictions on end-of-life care as the Democratic Party for the People says, it will only encourage anxiety about the future and encourage the working generation to save more.
>>1 You’re still responsible for half of the social insurance premiums and all of the labor insurance (funds for unemployment insurance and industrial accidents) lol I don’t think it’s too bad to quit. In return, move your headquarters back to Osaka and pay your property taxes.
They know that the pension system will collapse, so they are saying, “Each person should earn their own retirement funds through the new NISA, and it’s their own responsibility.”
>>19 The future theme is the penetration and deepening of the My Number system. It will directly lead to the reduction of civil servants and budget cuts due to underground money, tax evasion, and streamlining. The digitalization of government administration, security, and cooperation with the private sector are urgently needed.
They’ve been working and paying their bills all this time, so they have the means. If they’re going to talk about painful reforms, criticize the generous treatment they give to lawmakers. Are these people stupid?
Isn’t this an unreasonable argument? It would be understandable if they were to return what they’ve already paid, but it’s legally difficult to make them pay and then not pay anything.
>>30 You pay pension insurance premiums, right? Do you know what insurance means? Originally, insurance is meant to prepare for situations like if you get into a traffic accident or get hospitalized due to illness. Pension insurance is also meant to prepare for when you get old and can’t work and have no income. If you have a job and have an income and can live, you don’t need to get a pension. If you quit your job and have no income, you can get a pension.
I know some old people who spend every month lavishly with the money they’ve earned working while receiving a pension, but I wonder why the younger generation pays into pensions.
>>32 The rich go to the rich’s medical facilities even if they don’t say anything. They also get treatments that are not covered by insurance. That economic analyst is the same, right?
I imagine that even if you work hard, your income outside of your pension will be less than 1 million yen, but there are seniors out there who easily receive over 5 million yen, so it would be ok to stop their pensions.
