     Does anyone else feel *really* uneasy about what is happening (on principle, such as for the reasons I've mentioned), regardless of your feelings about Maduro?

     What's he gonna do— *force* U.S. companies to invest in Venezuelan oil infrastructure?

     Also, has he heard of supply and demand?

     Furthermore, the article mentions that trump said "the U.S. would keep some of the proceeds (the US oil companies make) 'in the form of reimbursement for the damages caused us by that country.'"

     Taking over another country's oil infrastructure (and the country itself) is absolute imperialism.

     A country that ignores another country's sovereignty could find its own sovereignty ignored someday.*

     *(Just sayin—seems inevitable when there are no regards for rules, norms, or laws. The bully country's major weaponry might delay this for a time, but it seems that country will eventually be bullied back.)

     Venezuela is a soverign country.

     The US bombed a sovereign country, took its leader, indicated it might take its oil, and said it will now run that country–

     All without declaring war through Congress like the Constitution specifies must be done.

     This wasn't just some random, isolated military operation that the president ordered. It was literally bombing a sovereign country and taking it over.

     Is it legal for the US to attack Venezuela and take its leader and perhaps, per trump's words, its oil?

     They can't even take care of their own country. Now they'll somehow run Venezuela.
