Japan is set to impose a "singles tax" next month as part of financing for measures to boost fertility rates, but it's not a tax and not levied on singles. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/03/26/japan/japans-singles-tax/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #japan #japaneseeconomy #taxes #familyplanning #parenthood #children
Japan’s ‘singles tax’ is just one battle after another

The plan has attracted vitriol due to its name and the fact that it burdens single-person households, which are now the most common type of household in Japan.

Сегодня семейная "сходка" затянулась на пару часов. Планы на год - это интересно. Но сложно. Тем не менее, основу накидали, в ближайшие недели конкретизируем (SMART же) и "погнали делать нашу жизнь лучше". Накидали максимум от каких-либо ремонтов и до увлечений. :)

Конечно, будет что-то незапланированное. Год - слишком большой срок. Но костяк как отправная точка останется и, надеюсь, подводить итоги года будет не менее забавно, чем в этом году.

За интересный 2026 год!
