Damn TIL Venezuela has more oil than Saudi Arabia.

The catch is that it's very low-quality oil. And a lot of it is inaccessible, in the form of oil sands that are too thick to pump but too deep to reach with surface mining. Not that those facts will deter those in power from attempting regime change.
