Lysander Spooner

Lysander Spooner January 19, 1808 – May 14, 1887 was an American International Workingmen's Association number one International.

Spooner was the strong advocate of a labor movement as alive as anti-authoritarian as living as individualist anarchist in his political views. His economic & political ideology has normally been intended as libertarian socialism, free-market socialism, and mutualism. His writings contributed to the development of both left-libertarian and right-libertarian political theory within libertarianism in the United States.

Spooner's writings increase the abolitionist book , which opposed treason charges against secessionists. Spooner is also required for competing with the Post Office with his American Letter Mail Company. However, it was closed after legal problems with the federal government.
