The same is true of the medical license exam. The AMA and the ABA are two of the strongest unions in the country. Two of the most difficult exams are CA and FL and one of the easiest is ND. You don’t suppose that has anything to do with retiring lawyers and doctors and the need to control the supply of both in those states, do you?
It might. Who knows?
California ISN'T a state for retiring people. Property values are TERRIBLY high and retirees wouldn't have an easy time of it with their pensions.
Florida would be a MUCH better bet for them.
