So, what goood does the license do that the private sector has not already
done
better?

Will they issue you insurance without you showing a license? If not, then
the
insurance company is relying (partially) on a government function to weed out
some of the undesirables.

I would think educational credentials, like a DDS or DMD degree from a
reputable dental school would be a good starting point. Certainly better than a
license from the state.

But you still haven't made a case that the insurance industry is providing
any
"better" service to anybody other than you.



For a good example of how this could provide better service, look under your
toaster. You will see the UL acceptance number. Underwriters Laboratory is
supported by the product liability insurance business and by self insured
manufacturers and sets generally accepted safety standards with no help from
the government.

Licensing of professionals provides very little in the way of safety, the real
purpose of licensing is collusion with government for restraint of trade.
