Yes, that and too much regulation makes Japan very difficult, although to be honest, USA has a lot of regulations in some states, maybe even more than Japan. In Japan I have double regulations to deal with cause I'm a foreigner.

You can get a citizenship paper to reduce the regulation pressure, or are you on a work visit there?

Citizenship would present some new problems. My goal is permanent residency which I think I'm 3 ways away from. Gotta keep paying high taxes until then lol
