For example, though the recent reduction in the corporate-tax rate was necessary to encourage economic growth and attract investment, it seems to many Japanese to be a questionable move at a time when the consumption-tax rate has been increased and measures to address deflation are pushing up prices. To address this problem, the companies that enjoy tax cuts should increase their employees' wages to keep pace with rising prices, instead of waiting for market forces to drive them up.
比如，尽管最近的降低公司税的政策对于鼓励经济增长、吸引投资十分必要，但对许多日本人来说，在消费税已经提高、治理通缩的措施正在推高物价的时候，采取这样的动作大有问题。要解决这一问题，享受减税的公司应该提高员工工资以赶上物价上涨，而不是坐等市场力量驱使工资上涨。
