 To President Trump!

Weekday edition, May 8, 2025

Trump tariffs should be made unavoidable for all countries, including Japan. The Trump administration should establish a "system" called "balanced countervailing duties (tentative name)" for each exporting company. This is a system that allows for zero tariffs through corporate efforts.

In addition to the system of imposing "reciprocal duties" on a country-by-country basis, a wise Trump administration would impose "balanced countervailing duties" on each company in the exporting country and exempt the "countervailing portion of exports and imports" from the "reciprocal duties."

Generally, countervailing duties (CVD) are a system that imposes additional duties on subsidized imports. The "balanced countervailing duties system" I refer to is dif-ferent from this.

In other words, companies exporting to the United States will be subject to "recip-rocal duties" on the "export-import difference." The Trump administration should take "preferential" measures according to the "degree of contribution of each com-pany."

For example, if a Japanese car is exported to the US on a car carrier, and then US cars are loaded onto a ferry on the return journey and imported to Japan, a "bal-anced countervailing duty" will be applied.

Companies exporting to the US can reduce their reciprocal tariffs to zero by import-ing from the US. This should be the centerpiece of Trump's "tariff policy."

The "balanced countervailing duty" system is applied at the exporting country com-pany level, and by making the exporting country company bear the burden of elimi-nating the "trade deficit," it makes it possible to avoid "reciprocal tariffs" through corporate efforts.

There are "two ways" for exporting companies to reduce tariffs to "zero." The first is to produce in the US. The second is to "import" the "export amount" from the US and "pay" only the "export/export difference" as "reciprocal tariffs."

For example, Nissan can "export" completed cars on a car carrier, and "offset" the tariffs by loading the cars exported from the US to Japan on the "return cargo."

If Nissan actively sells "Cadillacs" in Japan, export tariffs could be "zero." First, Nis-san and GM should enter into a sales partnership and begin the experiment.

I believe that this "balanced countervailing duty" can be applied to "many fields." Even if an exporting company "exports miscellaneous goods" and "imports beef," the "balanced countervailing duty" applies.

The biggest attraction is that exporting companies can export to the United States tariff-free by importing American products without building a factory in the United States.

The "aim" of the Trump administration is to encourage exporting companies to im-port from the United States and to achieve "import-export balance" for each com-pany.

The EU would welcome this method. If you want to export "German-made Mer-cedes" to the United States at "zero tariff," you can import "Cadillacs" and sell them at "Mercedes dealerships."

By applying the "balanced countervailing duty," Germany can export "Mercedes-Benz" to the United States, import "beef" from the United States, and sell it at "Mercedes-Benz dealerships."

President Trump's "reciprocal tariffs" are wonderful. President Trump's goal is to reduce the "US trade deficit." To achieve this, exporting countries need to establish a system that can be implemented on a company-by-company basis.

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."
