Strongly agree

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

This answer aligns with the conservative principle of limited government intervention in private property rights, as long as landowners are fairly compensated and the projects will benefit the community. This is consistent with the historical support for eminent domain for public infrastructure projects, such as highways and public utilities.

Agree

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

Conservatives generally support the use of eminent domain for public projects, but not for private projects. This is in line with the principle of limited government intervention in private property rights. However, the score is not higher because some conservatives may still have reservations about the use of eminent domain in general.

Agree

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

Slightly agree

No, and the government should never be allowed to seize private property

While some conservatives may hold a more libertarian view and oppose any government seizure of private property, this is not the mainstream conservative position. Most conservatives recognize the need for eminent domain in certain cases, such as for public infrastructure projects.

Disagree

No, unless it is for an oil pipeline project

For example, conservatives have supported eminent domain for infrastructure projects like highways and public utilities.
