A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Yeah, I specifically meant economic freedom, or at least what I feel I have the freedom to do without worried like I had in the US. I'm not a small business owner (just me for now), bout a house that doesn't break the bank without fear of not being able to afford it even at half my salary, and don't worry about medical bills.

I've heard there are weird laws around buying and selling gold, but I don't so I can't speak to that. The most friction I have is with investing because I still have US citizenship which is not a Japan problem.
