He has nationalized the oil industry and he now wants to nationalize the iron and steel industry. Do you think he's making a big mistake??? Why?

I guess the answer depends on who you are. Profits from the oil are financing free health care, and free education for everyone. So if you own shares in the oil industries nationalization is disastrous, while if your a common citizen this might be a godsend for you.
Nationalizing an industry is not necessarily a bad thing. If the industry is maintained well and profits go to help people and not to line politicians pockets.

Let's see...do I think gradual evolutionary communism is a big mistake? Why, yes, I do! Thanks for asking.
Chavez is the next incarnation of Mao Tse-Tung. People are just unaware of the way he has perverted the democratic system in Venezuela.
By the way, the new story is that he wants to nationalize all the banks. Encore! It's right out of the Marxist playbook!

You mean that wonderful communist leader of the workers paradise? Is that why there are people leaving his country, like Cubans are still leaving Cuba, after 50 years under the wonderful workers paradise?
