It's Irrational to Require 1,000 Hours of Training to Be Able to Braid Hair | Cato @ Liberty
'Braiding hair, however, requires at minimum 1000 hours of training, 90 percent of which isn’t even generally relevant to African-style hair braiding. '
'Deprivations of economic liberty require meaningful judicial scrutiny that actively engages with the facts of the case without putting a finger on the scales in favor of the government. '
' Carroll, the Eighth Circuit should reverse the lower court because Missouri’s licensing scheme for traditional African hair braiders isn’t rationally related to any legitimate governmental purpose. '
'Becoming an EMT in Missouri requires 144 hours of training, including instruction in CPR, trauma care, handling hazardous materials, and medical ethics. '
'They both want to run salons offering traditional African-style hair braiding. '

If you work full time 40 hours a week and take two weeks vacation in a year, there are about 2000 payroll hours in one year. Half a year of payroll hours seems crazy but once you read the article and realize this is intentional to stifle competition I can understand the motivation. I don't agree with it but I wouldn't call ot irrational. It is a rational, calculated move designed to circumvent natural market forces. Still a shit move though.
