To President Trump! May 26, 2025 I believe that the Trump administration, which has been given a grace period, should once again propose a specific tariff policy to eliminate the trade deficit. Trade balance is important. The United States should threaten with tariff rates to eliminate the trade deficit and "relax" with another policy. That is, to incorporate a "balanced countervailing duty system" into the Trump tariff policy. This "balanced countervailing duty" will expand trade and eliminate the US trade deficit. "Balanced countervailing duty" is a system in which a high tariff is imposed on the "difference between the export amount and the import amount" for each exporting company or organization.

 To President Trump!

May 26, 2025 Weekday Edition

The United States and China have agreed to establish a "trade negotiation mecha-nism." The agreement between the United States and China to avoid damage from a trade war is good news for the global economy.

I argue that "balanced countervailing duties" should be created as part of the "Trump tariffs" to promote "balanced trade."

The trade war, which was intensified by President Trump's tariffs, has agreed to a "truce." According to a Chinese announcement, the two countries plan to work out the details as soon as possible and issue a joint statement. Both countries are adults.

The financial world believes that the risk-off mood, which was intensified by Presi-dent Trump's successive tariffs, has already overcome the "dark period." The whole world is rejoicing. It's great.

However, it is impossible to predict when and in what form future negotiations will end, and there is a 90-day deadline for the truce. "Balanced countervailing duties" will be the deciding factor.

Dean Smith says China got everything it wanted in Geneva and made no conces-sions. But the world is in a celebratory mood. Trump is "smiling." It's the world of adults.

The exorbitant 145% tariffs will be eliminated and will almost certainly become permanent. And both countries have been given a 90-day grace period for further negotiations.

I think that the Trump administration, given the grace period, should once again propose a specific tariff policy to eliminate the trade deficit.

Trade balance is important. The United States should threaten with tariff rates to eliminate the trade deficit and "relax" with another policy. That is, to incorporate a "balanced countervailing duty system" into the Trump tariff policy.

This "balanced countervailing duty" will expand trade and eliminate the US trade deficit. "Balanced countervailing duty" is a system that imposes high tariffs on the "difference between export and import amounts" for each exporting company or or-ganization.

Japanese companies have already introduced a system equivalent to "balanced countervailing duty". This is an existing system, not a system prepared for the "Trump tariff".

Since exporting countries do not have foreign currency, they import from exporting countries and recover the "export price" by offsetting the export amount.

In the case of Toyota Motor Corporation, there is a "trading company" called "Toyo-ta Tsusho", which balances exports and imports by exporting Toyota cars and im-porting products such as lumber from exporting countries.

In the case of Toyota, "balanced countervailing duties" means "barter". If the Unit-ed States introduces "balanced countervailing duties", "Toyota Tsusho" will develop products to import from the United States.

For the United States, even if "Toyota cars" are imported from "Toyota Tsusho", "Toyota Tsusho" will import American products equivalent to the export price of Toyota cars. I think this will be a positive for the US economy.

The Trump administration should stop focusing only on imports as a means to elim-inate the "trade deficit" and promote policies to promote exports in parallel.

Part 2. "Immigration Control Act Violation Cases" "Weekday Edition".

"Everyone" in the "international community" please help!

First, please read about the "false accusation" of "aiding and abetting violation of immigration law" in 2010.

❤Click below to read the full article!

https://toworldmedia.blogspot.com/

"Chapter 1". The summary of the incident is as follows.

In the fall of 2008, my company (I am the president) promised to hire "Chinese people studying abroad on student visas". I "issued" them "employment contracts" stating that "LEFCO" would "employ" them when they graduated from university the following spring.

However, after that, the "Lehman Shock" occurred in 2008.

As a result, orders for "system development" from the following year onwards were "cancelled".

As a result, "LEFCO" "cancelled" the "employment" of "those who were scheduled to join the company" in 2009.

Therefore, "they" continued to work at the restaurants where they had worked part-time as students even after graduating in 2009.

In May 2010, the Chinese were arrested for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act" by "activities outside of the status of residence".

In June 2010, after their arrest, I and the Chinese person in charge of recruitment (KingGungaku) ​​were also arrested.

The reason was "crime of aiding and abetting" the Chinese for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act (activities outside the status of residence)".

<Reason for arrest> The prosecution said that I and KingGungaku giving the Chinese a "false employment contract" constituted "crime of aiding and abetting" under the Criminal Code.

"Chapter 2". Crimes in the judgment: (arbitrary and ridiculous)

The charges in the indictment are "the very provisions" of "Article 22-4-4 of the Immigration Control Act".

If a "status of residence" is obtained by submitting false documents, the Minister of Justice can revoke the "status of residence" at his "discretion". (And the person will be deported).

Therefore, even if a Chinese person submits "false documents," it is not a crime. It is not a crime to "aid" an innocent act.

The "reason for punishment" in the judgment:

1. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" by submitting a "false employment contract."

2. And they violated the Immigration Control Act (activities outside of their status of residence).

3. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" because "we" provided the Chinese person with a "false employment contract."

4. The Chinese person was able to "reside" in Japan because he obtained "resident status."

5. Because of that, the Chinese person was able to "work illegally."

6. Therefore, "we" who "provided" the Chinese person with a "false employment contract" were punished for "aiding" the Chinese person's "activities outside of their status of residence."

This is an "error" in the arbitrary "logic of law."

This reasoning is the "argument" that "when the wind blows, the barrel maker (profits)." This goes against "legal logic" even internationally.

The "criminal reason" in the indictment cannot be a crime because the provisions of the "Immigration Control Act," which is a "special law," take precedence over the "Criminal Code," which is a "general law."

My argument:

"1": The Immigration Control Act stipulates that the Minister of Justice will revoke the act of a foreigner who has obtained a residence status by submitting false documents (Immigration Control Act: Article 22-4-4, cancellation of residence status) through "administrative disposition." That's all.

"2": The Chinese who engaged in "unqualified work activities" are not guilty. The reason is that their "employers" have not been punished for the "crime of aiding and abetting illegal employment" under Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act.

Therefore, under the principle of "equality under the law," the Chinese are not guilty.

The Japanese government has punished "diplomats and Philippine embassy staff" for the exact same "criminal reason."

However, like the Chinese government, the Philippine government is also silent.

The rest will be published in the Saturday edition.

Part 3. Special Zone Construction. A new business model.

Special Zones accept refugees and immigrants as temporary immigrant workers and limit their residence to the special zone.

Developed countries use them as low-wage workers and achieve high economic growth again.

Refugees and immigrants can get jobs and live a hopeful, humane life.

Temporary immigrants are low-wage, but "food, clothing, shelter, medical expenses, and education are free."
