    It's real, you just need that poor country know-how and "thieves guild" mentality.

    There are two ways to do it. The ultra legal way where you set up a company in venezuela and import food and export oil. The "we have our ways" legal way where you cut a deal with the local government in a border province to buy food from you in exchange for gassoline - gassoline is piss cheap so that's good for them.

    Thwere's a third way, which Colombians are already doing to some extent, but I don't want to break the ToS

    Yeah I heard about that recently. I think you would need to be a fairly large company to expand a branch into Venezuela though. Also you would need all of the right permissions. How would you sell food and then operate petroleum? Sounds kind of wacky.

    @Aexodus, ah you mean refugees. They tend to cross over into Colombia but in many cases get sent back.

    You don't. As long as you have a truck, a market and enough money to ensure the first month is smooth you don't even need headquarters. The beautiful thing about our countries is that certain things are easier than in Canada.

    That is actually what my dad says. The First World as it were has too many layers of bureaucracy.
    What do you do with cans of petrol though?

    TD players are the real clickers. Arty requires great patience, spatial awarness and some mighty fine rng rolls.

    TDs are just kemp bush at back, point, click, relocate.

    I have never seen a person who owned a car and did not want to buy cheap fuel, even off the back of a truck.
