What you said about Turkey is mostly true. Your causality is wrong. The reason Turkey is absurdly expensive and full of taxes is extreme amount of corruption caused by radical islamist government going full nepotism. Our head of economy was literally the groom of Erdogan for so many years.

Disclaimer: I am a Turkish dude who haplens to be an economics PhD student.

I know this is a humor subreddit and this is a joke, but this problem wasted a huge week of mine since I was dealing with absurdly small numbers in my simulations. Use fsum from math library in Python to solve this people.
