Reforming the Tax System in Japan
Japan's tax system is, alongside with the US American's, one of the least efficient in the world. Tax burden in Japan stands around 30% (similar to US). That has to be regarded as very low, especially when compared to european countries (Germany 40%, France 45% and scandinavian countries over 50%).

Prepared for some serious dissapointment tomorrow long Nikkei/ short Yen speculators?
I think the biggest illusion "Japan investors" succumb to is the BOJ's willingness/ eagerness to inflate Nippon's economy.
Will Japan's "real" trade balance just stand up please
I really have to shout out one thing today: I am seriously getting sick of ill-informed "financial media experts" and clueless vodoo economists, orchestrating their so loved japan bashing. I mean comon'. It's getting really boring and you guys not doing you any favour regarding your credibility and your perceived intellectual capabilities when it comes to basic economic concepts. I mean we are talking (basic) economics 101 here and not rocket science!
