I would like to know your opinion concerning the Japanese economy.

I received shocking mail just now, as usual, once a year. The documents tell me how much my household needs to pay for national healthcare insurance (NHI) premiums. Over one million yen (6,344 dollars), the maximum premium, is imposed on my family. The insurance premiums for a single year are determined by the previous year's income and have a limit. Roughly speaking, the maximum premium is imposed on income over ten million yen. NHI should be abolished, and medical savings accounts should be implemented. The NHI system has so many wastes.

1. You can also say, 'As usual, I receive shocking mail annually, and this year was no exception.'

That must be tough. I hope some alterations will be made. Please tell me about some of the wasteful practices within the system.

That's a good question. Government meddling usually creates a bureaucratic system between patients and medical providers and complicated regulations. The problem is the government's monopoly, and there is no choice besides NHI. Private insurance can't be replaced entirely with it. The national healthcare system is headed for disaster because of demographic trends. However, immigrants shouldn't be accepted readily to cover our budgets. They are not our property. Whenever I talk about this issue, I am often portrayed as misers who care nothing for the suffering of their fellow citizens.

1 and 2. The commas (,) separate the clauses.
3. 'A miser' shows what you look like.
4. 'Doesn't care' shows what you seem to feel.
5. As you are talking about yourself in third person 'her' is used.

That is indeed a complex issue. Based on what you stated, it is clear that there are several contributing factors leading to the decline of the healthcare system. Please elaborate a bit on how demographic trends influence this matter. For instance, are you referring to issues like the aging population?

Totally. The number of younger taxpayers for each retiree has been declining, so we won't be able to sustain the system due to a lack of resources. To maintain the system, taxation should be increased, and national spending should be reduced. The former is unrealistic. We should only accept skilled or wealthy immigrants who don't need to depend on the government, not simple laborers. The latter is possible by abolishing the NHI. The issue of the aging population isn't worth issue spending money on because people die sooner or later, so it's naturally solved.

1. 'Issue' is not necessary and can be removed.
