Here's good news. Japan might finally escape from deflation. Last week, the Nikkei stock index renewed its highest prices in 34 years. Wages also have grown. People in other countries often wonder why inflation is welcome in Japan. Deflation usually accompanies falling wages and the price of assets. It's still hard to say that deflation was a cause of Japan's malaise for decades, but there is a connection.

It is said that one of the root causes is population decline, which started in the 1990s. Also, there is an outflow of factories to countries with lower labor costs. Rising wages will happen, but it'll take a bit more time.
People who gain more income will be able to spend more money. Money circulation will happen. Businesses will hire more employees. Even some people with bachelor's degrees are currently working as unskilled workers. However, here comes a robber who deprives them of money in the name of tax. The Japanese goverment encourages people to give birth to increase the tax revenue of the future because when babies get older, they'll pay taxes. We Japanese are meant to come into the world to pay taxes, according to the Japanese goverment. That sounds like a cult.
