Author's note;
I want to introduce the bad side of the aids from all over the countries to Tohoku. The baddest aid is cash compensation (“Gienkin” in Japanese) because, according to Jonathan Wolff who is a professor of philosophy/political philosophy at the London University, Governments cannot give cash compensation for ever and cash compensation injure their character and self esteem. Cash compensation has 2 problems. First, there is a problem about mismatch. In this world, it is true that victims need more money to live, but only money cannot compensate for them because what they want is very diverse and sometimes everybody cannot buy what they want such as rights and domination. In this world, there are many problems people cannot solve using money. Second, there is a problem about “humiliating”. To get the cash compensation, it is needed for victims to reveal their shame to their government (Shameful revelation=”恥辱の告白”). After revealing their shame to get the cash compensation, their self esteems are injured and feel humiliated. It leads to stigmatization. The relation between victims and governments, and between victims and supporters, will include the relationship of “higher and lower” in subconsciousness of all people. It makes it impossible for people to maintain their social equality. Also, cash compensation makes it more difficult for victims to live without cash compensation itself. Due to cash compensation, victims’ sense of autonomy decrease. Someday, the amount of cash compensation decrease or vanish. Then, how will the victims live without cash compensation? Therefore, governments should not do cash compensation for victims themselves.

cf) What should governments do?

The money, which now government pays for cash compensation, should be used for making more works, affiliations and education, making people more autonomy and eliminating poverty.
