The phrase grew out of Brazilian political humor around Fernando Haddad, who became Minister of Finance in January 2023. As debates over import taxes, fiscal measures and the cost of online shopping intensified, social media users turned his name into shorthand for any new charge. Short videos and edits paired the shouted phrase with receipts, shopping carts and price reveals, helping it spread beyond political pages into general meme use. It remains popular because the complaint is instantly recognizable, even for viewers who follow the tax debate only loosely.
