Is there a reason this country collapsed despite Socialism? How would Socialists do it differently?

the collapse of Oil Prices,

the government was subsidizing everything regular people need (gasoline at pennies per liter, etc) in order to stay popular, and when the profits collapsed with the price collapse (because they didn't bank anything) the economy collapsed

Stupid economic policy will collapse any government.

It almost did in Russia too, and they were better prepared.

Ideological Socialists like to blame anything but themselves. Many say the US collapsed Venezuela. If your form of govt. is so weak...

Let's ignore the fact their former presidents daughter is worth about 4 billion US
