made me realize I wish headlines did not just say 25% tarrifs because to the average reader that sounds innocuous and even to someone who follows this stuff I don’t know how that could affect people in Colombia, except badly. This should be broken down in tangible negative impacts this will have and this goes for all tarrif related news. Come to think of it, the news seems to have no trouble doing this when the tariffs will negatively impact the global north.
