Yeah, to me the tolls are just taxes that are also penalizing everyone not involved in the conflict.
the OPEC and being bombed for not holding massive dollar accounts to accept payments for oil is also extortion and taxation by inflation.
you want the USG to stop messing with the rest of the world? then understand that they do it because they tax the world and enforce compliance, through the plausibly deniable mechanism of an oil pricing cartel and extending the currency area to the whole world. when printer go brr, everyone who holds dollars pays. especially the big holders like the people who have to accept dollars for their biggest export.
