Then what was it? You seem to have all of the answers and your matter of fact tone on an individual that you've never met is very impressive.
Did you ever finish your thought on medical professionals not needing licensing, because the medical companies wouldn't try to cut corners? Or were you too busy complaining that large companies were ruining the appraisal business with computer algorithms, because they were cutting corners?
I'm against licensing in almost all instances. They are against the idea's of a free market and only cause quality to degrade and prices to increase.
