I'd rather drink beer and wait for him to die.

I hate the World Bank and I hate Chavez (specifically in this instance that he nationalized Cerro Negro). It's like watching Bama vs Florida.

I don't quite understand what's wrong with nationalizing Venezuela's oil supply. Explain to me like I'm 5?

You don't see the inherent problem with a government confiscating wealth and resources?

I don't know. I don't know very much about him - I think a lot of people hate him because they are "supposed to".

The general public hates him because the US and he are unfriendly. I hate him because he's a horrible leader destroying Venezuela. He nationalizes industries. He controls the national media. He's a tyrant.
