Description

No Treason: The Constitution Of No Authority is a political treatise written by Lysander Spooner, originally published in 1867. The book is a critique of the United States Constitution and argues that it is a flawed document that cannot legitimately claim to be the basis of government authority. Spooner contends that the Constitution was not a voluntary agreement among the people, but rather a contract between the government and the people, and that the government has repeatedly violated its terms. He argues that the government's claim to authority is illegitimate because it is based on coercion and force, rather than consent. Spooner also argues that the Constitution is not a binding contract because it was not signed by all parties, and that the government has no legitimate claim to the property of its citizens. The book is a powerful critique of the American political system and a call to action for those who believe in individual freedom and liberty. It has been praised for its clear and forceful arguments, and remains a classic of libertarian political philosophy.What is the motive to the secret ballot? This, and only this: Like other confederates in crime, those who use it are not friends, but enemies; and they are afraid to be known, and to have their individual doings known, even to each other. They can contrive to bring about a sufficient understanding to enable them to act in concert against other persons; but beyond this they have no confidence, and no friendship, among themselves.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
