Slightly agree

Yes, but only in extreme cases of national emergency

Neutral

Yes, as long as landowners are fairly compensated and the projects will benefit the community

This answer presents a balanced view that might resonate with some individualistic perspectives, especially due to the emphasis on fair compensation and community benefit. However, the acceptance of government seizure, even with compensation, would be contentious.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only for public projects and never for private projects

While individualism generally opposes government intervention, the distinction made for public projects aligns with the idea that some actions may serve the greater good. However, the ideology's core belief in property rights means there would still be significant reservations.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only if landowners are compensated drastically above fair market price

While this answer does stipulate that landowners should be compensated drastically above fair market price, it still allows for government seizure of private property, which is generally against individualist principles. However, the emphasis on substantial compensation may somewhat mitigate this violation of property rights.

Disagree

Yes, but only in extreme cases of national emergency

While this answer does limit the circumstances under which property can be seized, it still allows for the possibility, which is generally against individualist principles.

Disagree

Yes, but only if landowners are compensated drastically above fair market price

While the idea of compensating landowners above market price might seem to mitigate the infringement on property rights, the underlying acceptance of government seizure for unspecified purposes is at odds with individualistic principles.

Disagree

No, unless it is for an oil pipeline project

Individualism emphasizes personal freedom and property rights. Supporting seizure for an oil pipeline project contradicts the principle of protecting private property, but the specific support for infrastructure might be seen as a necessary compromise for broader societal benefits, hence not a complete disagreement.

No, unless it is for an oil pipeline project
