Holy mother of ****, what a moron you are! Don't you see that the
Kuwaiti gasoline subsidy is *exactly* that kind of paternalism? It's
the Kuwaiti government saying to its citizens, "We don't think you're
smart enough to consume the 'right' mix of goods and services, so we're
going to hold the price of gasoline artificially low so you consume more
of it and less of other things."
You are so stupid.

You've already been told. One way or another, they pay the world price.

Having their choices made for them.

world market.
