The oil is important, but it isn't nearly the strategic concern that it once was, the US is now the world's largest oil producer.  Of course the US doesn't want a Russian or Chinese presence in the western hemisphere and yes that is 100% hypocritical.  As far as proving socialism must fail, Venezuela did that completely on their own.
