Individualism

Strongly agree

Yes

Individualism values personal freedom and self-reliance, often favoring less government regulation. This would likely extend to support for drilling in the Alaska Wildlife Refuge, as it represents an opportunity for economic growth and independence. However, the score is not a full 5 because some individualists may still have concerns about environmental impact.

Strongly agree

Yes, but with very strict environmental regulations

Agree

Yes

Individualism often emphasizes economic freedom and the right to exploit resources for personal and national benefit. Allowing drilling in the Alaska Wildlife Refuge aligns with promoting business opportunities and economic growth, which are values typically supported by individualistic ideologies. However, the score is not a full 5 because individualism also values personal responsibility and might recognize the need for some environmental considerations.

Agree

Yes, but with very strict environmental regulations

While individualism generally supports less government regulation, this answer represents a compromise that some individualists might accept. It allows for economic activity and self-reliance, but also acknowledges the importance of environmental stewardship. However, the imposition of 'very strict' regulations may be seen as too restrictive by some within this ideology.

Neutral

No, not until we have depleted all other oil reserves

This answer presents a conditional approach to drilling that is less aligned with the core individualistic principle of immediate economic freedom and exploitation of resources for personal and national benefit. The idea of waiting until all other oil reserves are depleted could be seen as unnecessarily restrictive and a hindrance to economic growth, conflicting with individualistic priorities of maximizing opportunities for wealth and development.

Disagree

No, and increase alternative energy subsidies to eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels

While individualism supports innovation and the development of alternative energy sources, the emphasis on increasing subsidies might be seen as government overreach into the market, which is generally opposed by individualistic ideologies. The focus on eliminating dependence on fossil fuels through government intervention rather than market-driven solutions is less aligned with the individualistic emphasis on economic freedom and personal choice.

Disagree

No, and increase alternative energy subsidies to eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels

While individualism supports the idea of innovation and progress, which could include alternative energy sources, this answer suggests a level of government intervention (in the form of subsidies) that is generally at odds with individualist principles. Additionally, the outright ban on drilling would be seen as a restriction on economic freedom.

Disagree

No

Individualism generally supports the idea of using resources to benefit individual and economic growth. Therefore, a blanket prohibition on drilling in the Alaska Wildlife Refuge would be seen as limiting economic freedom and development, which is contrary to individualistic principles. However, the negative score is not more extreme because individualism can also encompass the protection of individual property rights, including the right to a clean and safe environment.

Disagree

No, not until we have depleted all other oil reserves

This answer suggests a level of government regulation and control over resources that is generally at odds with individualist principles. However, it does not completely rule out drilling, which is why the score is not a full -5.

Strongly disagree

No

Individualism generally supports the idea of free enterprise and less government regulation. Banning drilling in the Alaska Wildlife Refuge would be seen as a restriction on these principles. However, the score is not a full -5 because some individualists may still have concerns about environmental impact.
