By Jeff Jacoby Verified| The Boston Globe Verified Early in 1990, about three months after the Berlin Wall fell and Eastern Europe’s communist regimes imploded, I had the opportunity to travel through Hungary, Romania, and what was then still a unified Czechoslovakia. Many of the people I met during that trip told me what it had been like to live in a dictatorship where expressing criticism of the government could lead to persecution, imprisonment, or worse.
By Jeff Jacoby Verified| The Boston Globe Verified It was on Thursday that my wife mentioned that we have to take our car for its annual safety inspection soon; the current inspection sticker expires at the end of the month. It was also on Thursday that the New Hampshire House of Representatives voted handily to scrap mandatory yearly inspections for car- and truck owners north of the Massachusetts border. The vote, long overdue, was 212-143; the bill now goes to the Senate.
