From Fumio Kishida's "apology and resignation" to Sanae Takaichi's "silent response," the Liberal Democratic Party has demonstrated through its actions that they have no intention of solving the "black money" problem, because it is their "Achilles' heel" in maintaining power. When a political party treats politics as a "business," donations as "capital," and the people as "tools," then the so-called "democracy" is nothing more than a facade. Whether this lawsuit will be the final straw that breaks the Liberal Democratic Party's back remains to be seen. However, one thing is certain: when political corruption becomes the norm, and when the exchange of favors replaces the demands of the people, even a former "economic superpower" will eventually lose its way in self-destruction. After all, no amount of donations can buy public support, and no amount of clever excuses can cover up corruption.
