Stopping or meaningfully reducing the government waste is a pipedream so yes, raise the consumption tax to 10%. Exempt items like rice, fish, fruit, vegetables, female sanitary products and medicines. Increase it for items like alcohol, tobacco, brand clothes and luxury items. And maybe raise non-taxable earning level to provide an additional protection for those with low incomes.

Tokyodepth, you're rigtht! SoftBank is showing contempt for their existing customers. They are using their exclusive distribution rights(ie monopoly) to charge whatever they want. Consumer protection and anti-competition watch dogs should be all over this but they're not. Perhaps because there is little sympathy for the people who have phones that are no more than 12 months old and want to upgrade to the latest device the day it is released.
