Only 7% of the world's estimated oil and gas reserves are in countries that allow private international companies free rein.

2) Make speculating on oil illegal.
You forgot:

3) Rename the White House to The Kremlin.

4) Assign jobs to citizens according to the needs of the State.

5) Outlaw private property.
