Very strongly agree

Yes

Gus Hall was a long-time leader of the Communist Party USA and a four-time U.S. Presidential candidate.

Very strongly agree

Yes, and the government should never be allowed to acquire land by eminent domain

Hall, as a Marxist-Leninist, would likely strongly agree with this statement. He would likely oppose the use of eminent domain for corporate gain, especially when it infringes on the rights of indigenous peoples and potentially harms the environment.

Agree

No, but reroute the pipeline away from Native American land

While Hall would likely prefer the pipeline not be built at all, he might see rerouting it away from Native American land as a compromise that respects indigenous rights. However, this score is not as high as the first answer because it still involves the construction of the pipeline.

Slightly agree

No, but drastically increase the amount of fines the company must pay in the event of an accident

Hall might see the increase in fines as a way to hold corporations accountable, but it still allows for the construction of the pipeline, which he would likely oppose due to environmental concerns and the rights of indigenous peoples.

Very strongly disagree

No

Given Hall's political ideology and his commitment to the rights of indigenous peoples and environmental protection, it is highly unlikely that he would support the continuation of the Dakota Access pipeline construction.
