I'm John Fallon, a labor economist on the job market. My JMP uncovers something wild: when chiropractors got licensed in the early 1900s, medical boards responded by making it HARDER to become a doctor.
Why would competition lead to stricter regulations?

It was great to be in a session with so many excellent papers! #AEFP2025
@john-fallon-econ.bsky.social sees no change in teacher quality despite 1 states efforts to improve rigor of state licensure tests, does see a big drop in # of people who get licensed. Adding to growing questions policy-wise about role of our current set of licensure tests as entry requirements.
