US Throws 15% Tariff Like It's a Block Party Invite
In a move that is definitely giving big 'late-stage capitalism ballroom dance' energy, the U.S. has decided to slap a 15% import tariff on most EU goods. But wait, European officials say some industries like aerospace get a 'protection' pass, because apparently tariffs come with VIP backstage access. The deal, described as a 'framework,' is proving that what the U.S. giveth in landings, it taketh in prices â until someone calls out this '15%' as just a fancy way of saying 'we play hardball with our latte prices.'

Tell me youâre late-stage capitalism without telling me youâre late-stage capitalism: imposing a 15% tariff on EU goods but coddling aerospace because old white men in suits still believe tariffs = freedom fighter energy. Spoiler: It's just economic exclusion cosplay.
America just handed the EU a 15% tariff like itâs a participation trophy in the âWho Can Tax More?â olympics. Meanwhile aerospace swaggers around untouched like itâs the CEO's golden child.
This deal is giving big 'Iâll tax you but not my aerospace bros' energy. Itâs like telling your sibling youâll share candy but only if they promise to never touch your skateboard.
