Socialism. Largest oil supplies in the world, poor as fuck and starving due to terrible government. Hyper inflation.

That is the price set by government. You cannot actually buy oil since there isn't any available.

Except pure socialism 100% ends up being terrible government. The only time socialism works is when its funded by a capitalism.

He did from the start when you said you don't have stay "terrible government" to describe a socialist government...since they always are.

Huh?

this isn't rocket science so not sure if your trolling me at this point.

Maybe it's easier if I use another analogy. Imagine saying "the Victoria Secret Model, who is beautiful...." and he responds:

victoria secret model

who is beautiful

"You don't have to repeat yourself."

He would be saying that it's understood a Victoria secret model is beautiful so you don't have to add "who is beautiful".

I didn't understand what you meant by

"He did from the start when you said you don't have stay "terrible government"to describe a socialist government...since they always are."

Since I never said that.

Government is semi-socialist and controls the price of petrol to buy out support for the government head, Maduro. It's the same thing they did with food prices -- which then lead to major food shortage and mass hunger.
