OK, f**k Hugo Chavez

[patrick1]

Why would I have problems with him nationalizing industries or seizing land from the rich? Maybe if I was a libertarian or conservative yes, I would, but I'm not.

Exactly, why would you care?  You are a blissful, American college student who parties and goes to shows.  Chavez's policies do not have a concrete impact on you.   OTOH, if you were a Venezuelan who worked there a$$ off for forty years only to have a good deal of it taken away from you - you may feel a bit different.
