I wanted to wish the abolitionist, anarchist, and agorist Lysander Spooner a happy 202nd birthday.
It is a shame the individualist anarchist and legal scholar Lysander Spooner died before completing his work on natural law.

What follows is an e-mail discussion stemming from a quote I posted on my Facebook profile.

From the looks of it, Carl Jung has some extravegent followers. I don’t know anything about his other works. However, I appreciate these comments on individualism from “The Undiscovered Self.”
