when an organization restricts you from exercising your natural rights and then sells those rights back to you, that isn't for your safety. When those restrictions protect bad actors, fuel monopolies, keep prices high and quality low (as occupational licensing schemes have been found to do) that also doesn't promote any safety... anyone who purchases goods and services is understandably going to want quality and to know they are getting advice or a product/service that they can trust, but that doesn't mean that the current methods of coercion for "verification" are the only way👍 I would prefer a more peaceful and voluntary credential and/or review system, no coercion nec✌ occupational licensing rules as they stand today are not for your benefit and no they aren't about general safety either.
