Bravo! I’m all for that. And a license to get married also please! And a license to have children while we’re at it.

But the problem is you’ll all the diploma mills popping up. They’ll certify anyone who’s breathing. And who do you think will get the permits to run those private schools? Friend of politicians, of course. Are we going to have financial aid that will be funneled into private for profit companies as well?

Maybe a state board exam would be enough. If you can’t do NPV or IRR, can’t calculate property taxes, or cannot figure out the impound amount, then you can’t get a mortgage.
