The arguments against special taxi licences are the same arguments against occupational licensing in general.
Do you want every entry level job to require a license and put up barriers to getting these jobs for immigrants? Do you think nail technicians, hairdressers and waiters should require a license to do their job too?

- captainmuon 9y agoSome jobs should require licenses, or better: exams, some shouldn't. I see no problem deciding that on a case-by-case basis. And as long as the test is not too expensive to take, why not have a hairdresser exam? The thing that is a barrier for immigrants, in most places, is that they don't get work permits.
