The author argues most laws already cover safety, criticizes new amendments and agencies, cites oil shale and Sierra Club debates, ICC trucking rules, zoning limits, and notes the broader pullback from redundant laws while warning the fight continues.

Cuba’s role uncertain in Angola troop withdrawal
The piece says Fidel Castro used Sweden’s Olof Palme to inform Henry Kissinger that Cuban troops are withdrawing from Angola, a move Kissinger calls a positive development though the impact is unclear.
