Wait, so he's going to be selling gas for below market price at Citgos in certain cities? Where are these stations?
See, that's something I don't get about this. Chavez is saying that the oil is for 'poor people' and part of his '21st century socialism' crap, but how exactly do you stop anybody from taking advantage of the cheap oil?
"Sorry, we can't serve you because you drive a Merc."
Exactly. How exactly does this benefit him when he's essentially taking a loss? I'm quite sure he wouldnt be able to get away with discrimination as to who buys the gas from any Citgo station.
Not to mention the fact that the majority of people who take advantage of the deal will more than likely have no clue whatsoever that Chavez was involved in any way. All they'll think is "Cheap gas!" and that'll be the end of it.
