What is this "conspiracy bill"?
New Bill/Law Abe is pushing which pretty much gives the government the right define as a crime “planning the execution of a serious crime for a terrorist or other organized crime group.” The claim is that this law is needed to comply with U.N. Transnational Crime Convention. Main reason that it is controversial is that it is written in way that does not only targets terrorist activities but also any act that if carried out would violate the law. An example would be conspiring to avoid consumption tax or favor some creditors over others — even directors “conspiring” to pay dividends in violation of a corporation’s charter may become a crime.

New scandals that seems to imply that Abe intervened to help friends of his to accelerate their approval process for a new school plus signs of cover-up plus the anti-conspiracy bill being passed by unorthodox methods to avoid debate has led to a further fall in Abe Cabinet approval to the lowest level since mid 2015.
Used to live in Osaka for 7 years. My wife is Japanese. I worked for a Japanese companies for 12 years till 3 years ago. Now working for Korean company but still heavily with Japanese automakers. From a libertarian POV what party seems most in line with ideas of economic freedom? I don't see any great examples. Of course few are involved in politics. Except when it was sort of too late some millennials were protesting the role of the military or a good deal of nuclear energy post-Fukushima. Campaigning seems so quaint with the posters and the little vans. Except when the uyoku vans roll by.
