私は、日本の消費税増税に対して、否定的です。北欧のような２０％もの増税をすることによって、国が社会保障に使えるお金が増え、我々の生活がよくなる可能性があることは理解しています。

しかし、今の若い人たち（主に20代）の生活を見て考えよう。
働く知人の話を聞く限り、月にもらっている給料は、税金や保険料などを差し引くと、月収は20万程度であることが多い。これは国税庁からのデータからも明らかであり、20代の平均を見ると248万から344万と、月収で20万から30万に満たないとわかる。

I disagree with the idea of raising consumption tax in Japan. By increasing the tax by 20%, I understand the amount of money which the government can use for the social security will increase, so there is a possibility to be able to improve our quality of life.

However, considering the life of today's young people(mainly in their 20's).
As far as I heard from my acquaintances who are corporate employees, many of them receive two hundred thousand yen per month, the sum is a present price excluded a tax and an insurance cost. The data from National Tax Agency also tells us this obviously. The average annual income of 20's is from 2.48 million to 3.44 million, less than from 2 hundred thousand to 3 hundred thousand yen.
