Representative Edano "The question is how to rebuild the economic life"

At a press conference, the Constitutional Democratic Party's representative, Edano, said, "In the House of Representatives election, the question is how to rebuild the economy and livelihoods by widening and fixing disparities through Abenomics. Is it the Liberal Democratic Party, which repeats that policy at all, or the Constitutional Democratic Party, which cuts into the causes of non-growth and makes appropriate redistributes? It is a big difference that attracts the attention of voters. "
