The primary objective of the barber-styling license law is to:

  1. Limit the number of barber-stylists

  2. Raise revenue for the state

  3. Protect the public

  4. Create jobs for board members

The correct answer is: Protect the public

The primary objective of the barber-styling license law is to protect the public. This means that the law is in place to ensure that those performing barbering and styling services have received proper training and have the necessary skills to do so safely. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the purpose of the law. Limiting the number of barber-stylists, raising revenue, and creating jobs for board members are not the main objectives of the barber-styling license law. The law is in place to protect the public, not to control the market, raise money, or provide employment opportunities for board members. Therefore, option C, "Protect the public," is the best answer.
