2023-11-06 Then, when I was able to get a refund or reduce the amount in the system, I would shout a battle cry of "I won!" [長年日記]

I was lecturing on the "invoice system" in my company's E-Learning program, so I used ChatGPT to prepare.

"Please explain the invoice system as simply as possible."

"Explain the invoice system using a familiar, concrete example."

"List the advantages and disadvantages of the invoice system."

-----

My understanding:

"This is an attempt to visualize cash flow in Japan, not at the arterial level but at the capillary level."

-----

This system seems to be effective in preventing tax evasion.

However, it will likely be cumbersome and enormously costly for businesses and consumers.

And I, as a researcher--

As a struggler analyzing human behavior patterns with numbers on a computer every day, I am very interested in the data that the invoice system will provide.

However, it is doubtful that we can get such data released as open data.

At the very least, I believe the government will provide statistical data.

Aside from that.

-----

As a standard citizen, I believe 'I am willing to go to any lengths to evade taxes...or rather, to save taxes.'

I have also done the proper tax returns for my now-deceased father and mother.

I made no false declarations, but I was prepared to arm ourselves with the proper logic regarding necessary expenses and others.

Then, when I could get a refund or reduce the amount in the system, I would shout a battle cry of "I won!"

If you call it "a petty struggle against power by a small citizen," - well, you could say that.
