Liberal Democratic Party Governor's Election The difference in claims stands out in the reform of the pension system

In the LDP presidential election, the Minister of State for Regulatory Reform Kono expressed his intention to cover all the financial resources of the basic pension with consumption tax, while former Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Kishida, former Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Takaichi, and Secretary Noda The three acting chiefs all have opposite attitudes, and the differences in their claims stand out.

The Liberal Democratic Party presidential election has been held for a week until the ballot counting on the 29th of this month, and the debate among the four candidates is active.

Under these circumstances, regarding the reform of the pension system, Mr. Kono, the Minister of State for Regulatory Reform, said that the current system, in which the amount of pension payments would decrease if the insurance premiums were not paid, could not fulfill the minimum guarantee function and the number of recipients of livelihood protection could increase. He pointed out that the basic pension was not fully funded by the consumption tax.

On the other hand, the other three candidates all showed opposition, and former political research chairman Kishida was in the process of shifting financial resources, keeping in mind the background of opposition to the "minimum security pension" aimed at by the Democratic Party of Japan. Pointed out that there could be a double burden of insurance premiums and taxes.

In addition, former Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Takaichi pointed out that if the entire amount is covered by tax, new financial resources of 12 trillion yen or more will be required, and if it is covered by consumption tax, what is the increase in the tax rate? I am asking you to show the degree or concretely.

In addition, Acting Secretary Noda explained that the current system should not be anxious to those who are paying premiums, and that the current system is designed to be maintained until 2100, and the difference in claims stands out.

On the other hand, Mr. Kono, Mr. Kishida, and Mr. Noda insist that the party's rule that the candidate for proportional representation should be under 73 years old should be adhered to, while Mr. Takaichi is a young man. He says that the strength of the Liberal Democratic Party is that he can play an active role in a wide range of fields, from veterans to veterans.
