You're thinking about it the wrong way:
>be me
>digital nomad
>extract $200,000/year from America
>deposit 90% of that into the Japanese economy by blowing it on hookers/blow/rent/shopping
>no tariffs stop this wealth transfer, taxing remittances does nothing
It's like a trade imbalance that trade barriers don't work against, which is why some (smart) countries (not japan) suck your dick to get you to digital nomad there.
All you need to do is provide a safe, clean country and you can bring in a lot of money for the local economy. The only challenge is how to distribute that evenly so it doesn't all go to jewish landlords and yakuza brothels.
