To President Trump!
2026 October 28 【Today’s Proposal】France’s wave of protests is not merely dissat-isfaction with “high prices” or “deteriorating educational conditions.” It is the mani-festation of a structural fiscal crisis and deep political paralysis in which the govern-ment cannot present fundamental solutions. I present the realities the French gov-ernment must confront and the concrete policy framework it must adopt immediately. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
1.【The collapse of the educational environment ignited nationwide unrest】Across France, high school students rose up because of chronic teacher shortages, dilapi-dated school buildings, overcrowded schedules, and deteriorating classroom condi-tions. The fact that young people felt they could no longer receive even the minimum level of educational services became the spark that triggered a nationwide explosion of public dissatisfaction. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
2.【Soaring prices struck citizens directly and expanded the protests】Inflation, rising fuel costs, and surging energy prices have pushed citizens to the brink. The fear that “the cost of living is too high to survive” caused labor unions, pensioners, and ordi-nary citizens to join the students’ protests, expanding them into nationwide demon-strations. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
3.【Fear of fiscal deficits and austerity intensified public anger】France faces a mas-sive public debt approaching 120% of GDP, and the government is attempting to cut spending. Citizens fear further reductions in healthcare, education, and social welfare budgets, and this fear is fueling even greater protest activity. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
4.【Political stagnation and distrust of the government destabilize society】The Mac-ron administration has lost its parliamentary majority, plunging politics into paralysis. With the 2027 presidential election approaching, conflict between citizens who want to preserve the welfare-state model and a government forced to pursue fiscal recon-struction has intensified, resulting in widespread social unrest. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
5.【Ukraine support has accelerated France’s fiscal crisis】Since the start of the Ukraine war, France has provided military, humanitarian, and financial assistance to-taling 7–10 billion euros. Amid massive fiscal deficits, this external spending has be-come a major factor squeezing domestic welfare and education budgets. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
6.【EU-based financial burdens further strain France’s budget】As one of the EU’s main contributors, France bears a large share of Ukraine-related support through mechanisms such as the European Peace Facility (EPF). These EU-based burdens ex-ceed France’s bilateral support and have worsened the structural fiscal deficit, ampli-fying public dissatisfaction. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
7.【A huge education budget and a deteriorating reality—an unresolved contradiction】France’s annual education budget is enormous—around 89 billion euros—but more than 30% is allocated to pensions for retired public employees. As a result, insuffi-cient funds reach actual classrooms. Citizens are angered by the contradiction: “There is a huge budget, yet education never improves.” (Yasuhiro Nagano)
8.【Why France sees more unrest than Japan despite having less debt】Japan’s debt exceeds 200% of GDP, yet France experiences far greater social unrest. The reason is structural: France issues euro-denominated debt and is strictly bound by EU fiscal rules. Any increase in deficits immediately threatens national stability, unlike Japan’s domestically held yen-denominated debt. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
9.【Strong entitlement to welfare fuels resistance to cuts】French citizens have long viewed generous welfare—pensions, healthcare, education—as a natural right. Therefore, when the government attempts spending cuts, fierce resistance erupts, spreading protests across society. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
10.【Government failure to present solutions amplifies public anger】The Macron administration has failed to present any fundamental solution to the fiscal crisis and refuses to listen to citizens. I submit proposals to the presidential office every day, yet the government ignores them. Public anger is entirely justified. (Yasuhiro Naga-no)
11.【Immediate suspension of Ukraine support is the top priority】Many French citi-zens demand the suspension of Ukraine support. Protest placards explicitly call for it. Halting external expenditures—the largest driver of fiscal deficits—is the first step to-ward protecting domestic welfare and education. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
12.【High tariffs and Balanced Countervailing Tariffs to eliminate trade deficits】France, like the United States, lacks export competitiveness. It must adopt high tariffs similar to Trump’s tariff policy and implement my proposed “Balanced Countervailing Tariffs” to achieve export-import equilibrium. This would significantly improve France’s fiscal deficit. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
13.【Industrial reconstruction through an Algerian Special Economic Zone】France and other EU nations should establish a joint Special Economic Zone in Algeria, a former colony, accepting migrants and refugees under temporary EU visas and em-ploying them at lower wages than China. Housing, food, education, and healthcare would be free—thus not a human-rights violation. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
14.【Linking the Special Zone with domestic industry will revive France’s economy】Products assembled in the Special Zone would surpass Chinese goods in competitive-ness. France would produce high-value components domestically and export them to the Zone. The more products the Zone sells, the more domestic industry prospers, enriching French workers’ lives. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
15.【G3MA and GPA will reduce military spending to 1/100 and rebuild the welfare state】By establishing G3MA (U.S.–China–Russia) and GPA (a defensive-only alliance for all other nations), global military spending would fall to 1/100 of current levels. The savings would fund free education and healthcare, fully restoring the welfare-state model. I present realistic, concrete solutions. France must adopt them immedi-ately. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
（Overall Summary）France’s protests stem not only from high prices and deterio-rating education but from a combination of Ukraine-related fiscal burdens, EU fiscal constraints, political paralysis, and the collapse of the welfare-state model. I propose a concrete policy framework—suspending Ukraine support, adopting high tariffs and Balanced Countervailing Tariffs, establishing an Algerian Special Economic Zone, and reducing military spending to 1/100 through G3MA/GPA. These are realistic solutions France should adopt immediately. (Yasuhiro Nagano)

1. Weekday Edition (Logical Contradictions in Immigration Law Violation Cases - Chapters 1-2)
Part 2: The Immigration Control Act Violation Case [Weekday Edition]
Japan’s judicial system and immigration administration involve severe human rights violations that challenge international standards. Through my own experience, I strongly question Japan's status as a constitutional state governed by the rule of law.
Please first read how I was wrongfully implicated in a case of "Aiding and Abetting the Violation of the Immigration Control Act" in 2010.

[Chapter 1] Case Overview
Autumn 2008: My company (where I serve as President) executed an employment contract with Chinese students holding student visas, promising to hire them upon their university graduation the following spring.
Late 2008: The Lehman Brothers bankruptcy triggered a global financial crisis, resulting in the abrupt cancellation of our upcoming system development projects.
2009: Due to the severe economic downturn, we were forced to rescind the job offers. Consequently, the graduated students had no choice but to continue working at the restaurants where they had been employed part-time during their studies.
May 2010: These former Chinese students were arrested for "Activities Other Than Those Permitted Under the Status of Residence" (Violation of Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act).
June 2010: I and our Chinese recruitment manager were also arrested. The charge brought against us was "Aiding and Abetting" (under the Penal Code) their unauthorized technical employment.
The Prosecution’s Logic: The prosecution asserted that our prior issuance of the employment contract constituted a "false document," which subsequently aided their unauthorized work.
[Chapter 2] Fatal Flaws in Judicial Interpretation
This indictment and subsequent judgment completely disregard fundamental legal principles, relying on an entirely arbitrary interpretation of the law.
Under Article 22-4, Paragraph 1, Item 4 of the Immigration Control Act at that time, submitting false documents merely granted the Minister of Justice the authority to revoke a residency status as an administrative disposition (leading to deportation). The act of submitting false documents itself was not codified as a criminal offense. Logically, one cannot be convicted of "aiding and abetting" an act that is not a crime in itself.
The court’s reasoning followed a convoluted chain of causality:
A residency status was obtained via a false employment contract.
The individuals resided in Japan based on that status.
Consequently, they engaged in unauthorized part-time work.
Therefore, the issuer of the initial contract aided and abetted the unauthorized work.
This is a far-fetched, flawed causal link that completely violates the principles of modern legal logic.
[My Argument]
Confusion of Administrative Dispositions and Criminal Penalties: The Immigration Control Act explicitly designates the consequences for false documentation as administrative measures (revocation of status and deportation). The legal process concludes there.
Absence of a Principal Offender: The actual employers of the restaurants where the students worked were never prosecuted for "Encouraging Illegal Employment" (Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act). Under the principle of equality under the law, it is a legal contradiction to punish us for aiding and abetting when the principal employers themselves were not prosecuted.
This same flawed legal doctrine was later improperly applied to diplomats and embassy staff.
Continued in the Saturday Edition.
Part 3: A New Business Model via Special Economic Zones
I propose the establishment of "Special Economic Zones" designed to accept refugees and migrants as "temporary migrant workers," with their residency restricted to these designated zones.
This framework offers a dual benefit: advanced nations secure low-cost labor to drive economic growth, while migrants receive human dignity, secure jobs, and free access to housing, food, healthcare, and education.
