Yes, It's All About The Money is a figure of speech. Entrenched $$$ and power, etc.
I think notinmybackyard maybe overreacted due to "SOCIALISM!!1111" fatigue, where pretty much any progressive initiative in the US is met with that protest from people on the right who have never actually looked up the definition of socialism. In this case, Chavez & co are self-proclaimed Marxists so it actually pertains. However going from EonBlue's other posts I think he's probably used the all-caps version too.
