... In most cases, this regulation by the state is performed at the behest of the professionals in charge of the activity, more as a way to control the level of competition and access to the supply of their particular commodity than to ensure competence. The market is quite capable of ensuring competence, but the state is much better suited to restricting the number of other people competing with you.
