Licenses are BS. Yes, all of them.
I don't care whether you have a license; I care that you can
do whatever you claim you can do.
I have nothing against training, certifications, endorsements, etc. I might even be impressed if you can show me credible proof of such training.
But licensing is
none of that.
Licensing doesn't mean you are capable; it means you have gained the approval-- the permission-- of some political gang. It means you have paid the gang for that approval and permission, and in exchange, the gang won't (
might not) murder you for doing what the license allows you to do-- something you probably already have a natural human right to do.
For some pitiful people, a license means they believe the gang is a legitimate source of competence. Either by feeling proud of their license, or concerning themselves over the licensing of others. That's not how I see it at all. A license will never impress me-- competence will.

Writing to promote liberty is my job.
YOU get to decide
if I get paid.
I hope I add something you find valuable enough to support.
