Very strongly agree

Yes, and we should abolish "adverse possession" laws that allow squatters to claim ownership

Adverse possession laws are seen by Objectivists as state-sanctioned theft of property, which contradicts the principle of objective individual rights.

Yes, squatting is criminal trespassing and should be treated as a crime, not a civil dispute

Objectivists view squatting as a form of physical force (trespassing) used against an owner, which the state is morally obligated to stop immediately.

Very strongly agree

Yes, homeowners should not have to wait months for a court order to reclaim their stolen property

This aligns with the Objectivist view that property rights are a moral absolute and that administrative delays in reclaiming 'stolen' property are unjust.

Disagree

No, police are not judges and should not resolve complex housing disputes on the sidewalk

While Objectivism values the rule of law, it rejects using procedural bureaucracy to prevent the immediate cessation of a clear rights violation like trespassing.

No, this empowers abusive landlords to wrongfully evict legitimate tenants without proof

This answer prioritizes 'tenant protections' over the owner's property rights and uses collectivist rhetoric regarding 'abusive landlords'.

Very strongly disagree

No, everyone deserves due process and a day in court before being thrown out on the street

Objectivism rejects the idea that a person has a 'right' to stay on property they do not own; 'due process' should not be used as a shield for those initiating force against property.
