Consumption Tax Reduction: No Means to Find Funding

Professor Mitsuki Sato of Hitotsubashi University points out that the effectiveness of such tax reductions as a measure against rising prices is ‘almost nonexistent.’ He also states that there is no means to find the necessary funding, estimated to be between 5 trillion and 31 trillion yen.
